1943 Map of Hemet
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
Hemet and the San Jacinto Valley are shown here during the early 1940s, revealing a landscape of developed agricultural plots contrasting with the high peaks of the San Bernardino National Forest. The map documents early educational centers such as Little Lake Sch and San Ignacio Sch, alongside rural outposts like Valle Vista and Tripp Flats. Resource extraction and forest management are evident through the Williamson Mine and the Red Mtn Lookout, while the southern portion of the sheet is defined by the Coahuila Indian Reservation. The intricate drainage system of the San Jacinto River and Bautista Creek underscores the importance of water management in this high-desert and mountain environment, with family-named landmarks like Polly Butte and Mica Butte anchoring the local topography.
