Description
Photograph of a poppy field in Altadena near Echo Mountain (and Mount Lowe), [s.d.]. The residence at the base of the mountain may be that of Robert J. Forsyth, who originally owned the land, later the site of the Cobb estate on north Lake Avenue near Las Flores Canyon. The small ranch- or crafstman-style home is shown in the left distance with the mountains behind. Photoprint reads "Mint Canyon".
