About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor defines the development of the Santa Clara River valley in this 1900 survey, connecting a string of early agricultural settlements from Somis to Camulos. The landscape is dominated by the transition from the steep peaks of the Los Padres National Forest, including Hopper Mtn and San Cayetano Mtn, down to the fertile plains of the Little Simi Valley. Local geography is intricately mapped through its complex canyon systems, such as Sespe Creek and Piru Creek, which were vital for water access in this semi-arid region.
