1938 Map of Manzana

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Antelope Valley transitions into the high country of the Angeles National Forest in this 1941 revision of the local landscape. The northern plains are defined by an early agricultural grid including Neenach Ranch and Pecks Ranch, while the south is dominated by the complex geology of the San Andreas Rift Zone. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the path of the Los Angeles Aqueduct cutting across the desert floor. In the more secluded canyons to the south, land use shifts toward mining and recreation. Prospectors worked the Big Chief Mine and Rivera Mines, while the Tweedy Lake Club and Drew Lodge provided mountain retreats. The map also captures essential local infrastructure like the Pine Canyon School and Pine Store, serving the dispersed ranching community at the edge of the mountains.
