About this map

The Mt Wilson Observatory crowns this 1930s survey, marking a period when these peaks served as a primary recreational and scientific retreat for the Los Angeles basin. This portion of the Angeles National Forest is characterized by a dense network of mountain camps and lodges, including Opids Camp, Valley Forge Lodge, and Sturtevant Camp, connected by steep trails and the early path of the Angles Crest Highway.
