1966 Map of Mt. Wilson

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Mount Wilson stands as the centerpiece of this terrain, dominated by the Observatory, Solar Camera Tower, and various radio installations within the Angeles National Forest. The map documents the dense suburban expansion of the mid-1960s into the foothills, with purple-tinted revisions showing further urban growth by the early 1970s. The landscape transitions sharply from the steep peaks of Mt Harvard and Occidental Peak to the structured street grids of Pasadena and Sierra Madre.
