Abstract

The area discussed in this report lies in the southern part of the California Coast Ranges, and includes the north-eastern part of the Saugus Quadrangle, and the south-eastern part of the Red Mountain Quadrangle. The area is located about 40 miles north-east of Los Angeles, and is easily accessible by roads. From Los Angeles it is reached by route 99 through San Fernando, and then by route 6, which joins route 99 about 2 miles north of San Fernando, for about 2 miles to the junction with the Bouquet Canyon road. One should turn left on the Bouquet Canyon road, which passes the mouth of Haskell Canyon. There is a fairly good dirt road in Haskell Canyon.
