Description
Color photograph of an aerial view of south Lake Forest and Mission Viejo in 1974. At the time the photograph was taken, the city of Lake Forest was named El Toro; a portion of this city is visible at the bottom of the photograph. The street that's running horizontally at the bottom of the picture is El Toro Road. There are railroad tracks that begin at the lower right of the photograph, run vertically towards the top, curve right, then end before the picture's upper right-hand corner. In the center of the photograph is the El Toro Reservoir. More than half of the photograph shows an undeveloped Saddleback Valley in its natural state of brown hills; the portion that is developed is predominately tracts of houses and residential neighborhoods. There is a piece of masking tape with "#1" written on it affixed to the upper left hand front of the print. On the back is written "74-006, Frame 003."
