About this map

Poway and its surrounding inland valleys are captured here during a period of established suburban growth and institutional development in San Diego County. The map details a landscape where residential developments like Scripps Ranch and Sabre Springs interface with significant natural features and water management infrastructure. To the south, Lake Miramar serves as a prominent landmark, while the northern terrain is defined by the heights of Black Mountain and Twin Peaks.

Genealogists and local historians can locate civic and educational anchors including Dearborn Memorial Park and Alliant International University San Diego. The drainage patterns of the area are clearly delineated through the courses of Los Penasquitos Cr, Beeler Cr, and Rattlesnake Cr, showing how the modern community of Poway Valley has integrated into the natural canyons and peaks of the region.
