Looked at Historic Aerials, but couldn't make out what the site was. I've hiked the area just to the southwest, but never been to this one. Bee Canyon is just to the east, so perhaps that's a clue to solving "white rocks?" BTW, the LA Aqueduct siphon traverses Bee Canyon, then tunnels southwest through the ridge parallel to San Francisquito Canyon Road to Drinkwater reservoir and powerhouse II. In this immediate area, there are four tunnel audits, and the remains of the "Hogback" aqueduct construction camp, circa 1912 (fun place to relic hunt).

It's the old Phillips Ranch. I am very familiar with this place.
Look it up under SCVHistory.com and search for Phillips Ranch.
It should be the first thing that comes up.
