2018 Map of Val Verde

About this map

Val Verde and the surrounding canyon country of the Angeles National Forest are defined by a complex network of ephemeral drainages and ridgelines. The settlement of Val Verde itself sits at the confluence of several canyons, with its residential grid extending along Val Verde Rd and Lexington Dr. To the southeast, the broader valley of the Santa Clara River facilitates major transportation routes like Henry Mayo Dr and provides a natural corridor for the community of Del Valle. The terrain transitions from the steep slopes of Oak Ridge in the south to the reservoir edges of Lake Piru in the west, illustrating the geographical constraints on development in this portion of the Santa Clarita Valley. Numerous fire roads and mountain ways, such as Loma Verde Mountainway and Santo Felicia Fire Rd, crisscross the high ground between Holser Canyon and Hasley Canyon, tracing the remote paths used for forest management and utility access.
