The Santa Cruz Mountains dominate this 1961 perspective of San Mateo County, where the transition from suburban expansion to protected wildlands is clearly defined. Along the eastern foothills, the residential growth of San Carlos and Redwood City is visible, featuring landmarks like the Sequoia Hospital and several local schools such as White Oaks Sch. Moving west, the terrain rises into the San Francisco State Fish and Game Refuge, centered on the Upper Crystal Springs Reservoir and the Pulgas Water Temple, a monument marking the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct.
