1937 Map of San Francisquito

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Infrastructure development and the management of Angeles National Forest take center stage in this mid-century survey of the California mountains. The northern portion of the sheet is dominated by the San Francisquito Power House No 1, supported by a complex system of Aqueducts and a Surge Tank that reveal the era's focus on water and power for the growing Los Angeles basin. The landscape is defined by the steep ridges of Jupiter Mountain and the Sierra Pelona range, deeply carved by San Francisquito Canyon and Bouquet Canyon.
