About this map

Mt. Gleason towers over this section of the San Gabriel Mountains, serving as a high-elevation lookout point for the surrounding Angeles National Forest. In this mid-century period, the landscape is defined by the critical management of water and timber resources, evidenced by the Little Gleason Forestry Plantation and the presence of numerous springs and named water sources. The rugged interior is accessible via the Angeles Forest Highway and fire management infrastructure like the prominent firebreak systems carved into the ridges.
