About this map

Palomar Observatory serves as the focal point of this high-altitude landscape, featuring the world-renowned Hale Telescope (200-inch), alongside a 52-inch Telescope and an 18-inch Telescope. The surrounding terrain is defined by the steep grades of Palomar Mountain, where numerous truck trails like the Palomar Divide Truck Trail and High Point Truck Trail snake through the Cleveland National Forest.
