1968 Map of Temecula

About this map

Murrieta Creek and Pechanga Creek converge near the town of Temecula, marking a critical hydrologic junction at the northern end of the Temecula Valley. The landscape is defined by the sharp descent of the Santa Margarita River as it carves through the mountains toward the coast, a transit corridor also utilized by the San Diego Aqueduct. Settled pockets like Rainbow and Royal Oak Ranch are interspersed between the high peaks of Red Mountain and Monserate Mountain.
