Sunland and the Crescenta Valley are shown here where the dense suburban grid of northern Los Angeles meets the steep slopes of the San Gabriel Mountains. The landscape is defined by the tension between development and nature, illustrated by the complex network of flood control infrastructure such as the Haines Debris Basin and numerous channels like the Haines Canyon Channel. To the south, the Verdugo Mountains rise above neighborhoods like Shadow Hills and Stonehurst, while the northern portion of the map is dominated by the Angeles National Forest. Here, a series of ridges and saddles, including Mendenhall Ridge and Gold Creek Saddle, are accessed by fire roads and trails like the Ebey Herreres Truck Trl. Genealogists and local historians will find the exact locations of Glen Haven and Sholom Memorial Park and the Verdugo Hills Cem clearly marked among the residential streets.
