1941 Map of Las Bolsas

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The coastal edge of Orange County at the start of the 1940s reveals a landscape defined by wetlands and recreational hunting grounds before the post-war suburban boom. Between Seal Beach and Huntington Beach, the shoreline is dotted with marshy inlets and exclusive sporting facilities like the Bolsa Chica Gun Club and Sunset Gun Club. The presence of the Pacific Electric railway running parallel to the coast highlights the importance of the "Red Car" system in connecting these seaside communities to the larger Los Angeles basin.
