Description
Crystal Lake Recreation Area (Azusa, CA) in the Angeles National Forest was improved by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). In addition to a stone bridge and several trail walls, it appears that the CCC constructed the Yerba Santa Amphitheater. The camp grounds were among approximately twenty built by the CCC in the Angeles National Forest.

In the September 19, 1934 Whittier News, there is an article announcing the completion of the amphitheater, as well as an adjacent building used as a store.
