1934 Map of Mt. Wilson

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

Mt Wilson stands as the focal point of this 1930s survey, dominated by the prominent Observatory that overlooks the complex canyon systems of the San Gabriel National Forest. The landscape is a network of steep drainages and fire prevention infrastructure, characterized by several Firebreak lines cut across the ridges. This era of mountain recreation is well-represented by a cluster of established camps and lodges tucked into the canyons, including Opids Camp and Valley Forge Lodge along the upper reaches of the West Fork San Gabriel River.
