2018 Map of Hi Vista

About this map

Saddleback Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this desert landscape within Los Angeles County, anchoring a terrain defined by isolated volcanic peaks. The small community of Hi Vista sits in the northeastern reaches of the quadrangle, while Wilsona Gardens is situated further west. This area shows a transition from sparse residential settlement to open basin floor, characterized by a strictly rectilinear grid of modern county roads like E Ave J 8 and Valeport Ave. Beyond the residential clusters, the geography is shaped by the ephemeral drainage of Big Rock Wash and several distinct geological features including Piute Butte, Little Butte, and the Rocky Buttes. The placement of these buttes suggests a landscape where high-ground relief provided critical orientation for early travelers across the Antelope Valley floor.
