About this map

The Tehachapi Mountains and the canyon lands of La Liebre dominate this landscape during the mid-1990s. This survey illustrates a rugged intersection of natural topography and infrastructure, where the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the southern ridges of the range. The terrain is marked by deep cuts including Tylerhorse Canyon, Gamble Canyon, and Burnham Canyon, all leading toward the arid flats to the south.

Modern utility and transport systems define the lower elevations. The Los Angeles Aqueduct cuts a prominent diagonal across the southern sections, passing near West Antelope Station. Human activity is further evidenced by a grid of rural roads like 170th Street West and the White Oak Lodge Landing Field, while various prospects scattered through the mountains point to the area's history of mineral exploration.
