Clear Creek Camp, about 4,000 feet high in the Angeles National Forest and 10 miles north of La Can~ada, has been owned and operated by the Los Angeles city schools since 1925. Perched atop a mountain overlooking Clear Creek canyon, the complex of two dormitories, lodge-museum, staff quarters and dining room-kitchens houses one sixth grade class each week throughout the school year. Photograph caption dated August 3, 1955 reads, "Grow baby pines to replant forest - Sue Cannady, Granada Hills school teacher, instructs youngsters in growing pine and spruce seedlings to planting burned over areas during session in nursery at Board of Education's Clear Creek Camp in Angeles National Forest.
