1956 Map of Big Meadow

About this map

Calaveras Big Trees State Park (South Grove) and the rugged drainages of the North Fork Mokelumne River and Stanislaus River dominate this mid-century survey of the High Sierra. The landscape is dotted with seasonal camps and historic waypoints, such as Bloods Toll Sta (Site) and Lombardi, reflecting the area’s transition from early pioneer trails to modern recreational and forestry use. The map records the infrastructure of the era, from the Highway Maintenance Sta at Big Meadow to several isolated dwellings like Mattley Cabin and Brown Girl Cabin.
