About this map

The Santa Clara River valley and the surrounding Santa Susana Mountains define a landscape transitioning from agricultural ranching to heavy petroleum extraction during the early 1940s. The region is dotted with numerous family-held and institutional properties such as the Hathaway Ranch, Newhall Ranch, and the Wayside Honor Farm. Significant industrial activity is concentrated in the Oak Canyon Oil Field and Newhall-Potrero Oil Field, reflecting the era's intensive resource development.
