About this map

Green Valley Lake and the nearby community of Running Springs anchor this mountain landscape in the San Bernardino National Forest during the late 1990s. The map illustrates the specialized recreational development of the era, from the Snow Valley Recreation Area and Green Valley Ski Area to the Calvary Chapel Camp. Transportation is defined by the winding Rim of the World Scenic Byway, which provides access to these high-altitude settlements and overlooks like Inspiration Point.

South of the residential clusters, the terrain drops steeply toward the Santa Ana River and Plunge Creek, where family-named landmarks such as Seymour Flat and Thomas Hunting Grounds appear. The presence of the Keller Peak Lookout atop Keller Peak and the designated Childrens Forest reflects the area's ongoing importance as a managed timber and recreation resource within the San Bernardino National Forest.
