About this map

The Santa Susana Mountains dominate this landscape, rising above the expanding urban edge of northern Los Angeles. This 2022 survey details the complex interface where suburban developments like Granada Hills and Chatsworth meet the steep canyons and ridgelines of the Transverse Ranges. A critical piece of regional infrastructure, the Los Angeles Aqueduct, is traced through the terrain, while the historical significance of the San Fernando Pass is evident near the junction of major modern transport corridors.

South of Oat Mtn, the map reveals pockets of unique geological and residential character. The striking rock formations at Stony Point and the Garden of the Gods stand near the established neighborhoods of Twin Lakes and Deer Lake Highlands. To the north, the transition into Santa Clarita and Newhall is marked by a dense network of fire roads and mountain ways, such as Weldon Mtwy and Ridge Fire Rd, reflecting the modern management of these wildland-urban interfaces.
