In 1867, Chatsworth became the site of a stagecoach relay station that connected Los Angeles and Santa Barbara through the Santa Susana Pass. Today, there are still parts of Chatsworth that recall its Wild West past, including craggy Stoney Point. The rock is scaled by scores of novices and experienced climbers on any given weekend and is one of the most accessible peaks of its kind for training anywhere in Los Angeles.
More than 2,000 films have taken advantage of Chatsworth's quintessential Western terrain. Legendary director Cecil B. De Mille was the first, shooting his 1913 epic, "The Squaw Man," here. After World War I, other film makers followed suit. Laurel and Hardy and Hopalong Cassidy plied their trade in Chatsworth, and such popular TV shows as "Gunsmoke" and the "Lone Ranger" were also shot in this northwestern section of the Valley. Many consider this ruggedly beautiful area "God's country," including the Hollywood producers who chose it to film the Academy Award-winning epic, "Ben Hur."
