Camp History
The Indian history of Lost Valley stretches back thousands of years. To the Cupeño people, it was known as Wiatava, the place of the oaks. Trade routes cris-crossed the valley, and the annual acorn harvest was an important event each fall.
Local cattlemen discovered the valley in the 1870s, driving their stock up the mountain for summer grazing. For more than 60 years, the Bergman family ran cattle in Lost Valley. Arlie Bergman’s homestead cabin, built in 1915, still stands.
