Description

Photograph of a birdseye view of Topanga Canyon and the Outside Inn, ca.1915. The inn is in the foreground at left and is a two-story wooden building with a covered porch. An American flag is flying from a pole in the middle of the building, directly above a large painted sign that bears the name of the inn. A narrow dirt road curves in front of the inn at left and is visible through the trees at right. There is a small wooden building on the hillside at right, and the roofs of several other buildings are visible poking above the tops of the trees that cover the hills. There are tall tree-covered mountains in the background.
