About this map

La Liebre dominates the southwestern corner of this mid-1990s survey, where the arid high desert landscape is defined by massive water infrastructure and a grid of rural avenues. The Los Angeles Aqueduct and California Aqueduct cross the terrain, supporting local agriculture and the needs of a growing Southern California. The intersection of Lancaster Road and the county line marks the site of the Neenach School, a focal point for the surrounding ranches and scattered homesteads like Gorrindo Ranch and Snyder Ranch.

Outdoor recreation and transportation are central to the area's character, with the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winding through the northern foothills. The map details the transition from the rugged canyons of the Sierra Pelona mountains, such as Pine Valley Canyon, to the flat expanse of the Antelope Valley. Evidence of the region's utility and settlement patterns is visible at Antelope Station and the Neenach Substation, illustrating how this remote part of Los Angeles County was managed at the close of the twentieth century.
