2018 Map of Sleepy Valley

About this map

Leona Valley and Agua Dulce anchor the high desert landscape of Los Angeles County, where the massive San Andreas Fault cuts a visible path through the terrain. The topography is defined by the high ridges of the Sierra Pelona and Mt McDill, with deep cuts like Bouquet Canyon and Mint Canyon providing traditional routes through the mountains. This 2018 survey reveals the persistent wild character of the Angeles National Forest, contrasted with the rural residential development in small communities like The Oaks and Lincoln Crest. The long-distance Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the center of the sheet, crossing the Leona Divide Fire Rd and passing through Lost Valley. The proximity of the Agua Dulce Airport and various springs like Willow Spring and Fryingpan Springs highlight the intersection of modern infrastructure and essential natural resources in this arid environment.
