1956 Map of Mescal Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The San Andreas Fault Zone slices diagonally through this high-elevation landscape, where the northern slopes of the San Gabriel Mountains drop toward the high desert. Settlement is defined by the contrast between the organized grid of Pinon Hills and the clusters of organizational retreats tucked into the canyons of the Angeles National Forest. Notable facilities like the Smithsonian Observatory and several youth and church camps, including Camp Junipero Serra and Camp Hawthorne, occupy the forested ridges and flats.
