USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Pacific Ocean coastline between Long Beach and Huntington Beach shows a landscape defined by wetlands and emerging aviation infrastructure in the years following World War II. A massive Naval Reservation dominates the interior marshlands, surrounding Anaheim Bay and Sunset Bay. This era is marked by the presence of numerous private sporting clubs, including the Cazzadores Gun Club, Lomita Gun Club, and La Bolsa Chica Gun Club, which highlight the region's history as a coastal wetland hunting ground.
