1942 Map of Hemet

About this map

Hemet and the San Jacinto Valley are shown here as they appeared during the early 1940s, a period when the agricultural character of the valley floor contrasted sharply with the surrounding mountains. The famous Ramona Bowl sits at the foot of the hills, marking the location of the long-running outdoor pageant. To the east, the landscape transitions into the San Bernardino National Forest, where the terrain is punctuated by significant peaks like Little Coahuila Mtn and Coahuila Mtn.
