1952 Map of Newhall

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Santa Clara River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and transit in this 1952 topographic study, where the Southern Pacific railroad and the Golden State Highway converge. This era captures the Santa Clarita Valley before its massive suburban transformation, showing established agricultural and ranching operations like the Newhall Ranch and Circle J Ranch. The map details the growing communities of Newhall and Saugus, including local landmarks such as Hart School, Saugus School, and the Wayside Honor Rancho. North of Castaic Junction, the landscape transitions into the steep terrain of the Santa Susana Mountains and the Angeles National Forest, characterized by deep cuts like San Francisquito Canyon and Charlie Canyon. Engineering of the period is evident in the Dry Canyon Res and various oil wells scattered near Castaic.
