1956 Map of Blue Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Eldorado National Forest and Stanislaus National Forest converge in this mid-century look at the high country where the North Fork Mokelumne River carves deep canyons through the Sierra. The landscape reflects a transition from industrial activity to recreational use, evidenced by the presence of numerous specialized camps like Solinsky Camp, Hamilton Camp, and Menzies Girl Scout Camp. While the lumber industry remains visible through labels like Lumber Camp and White Pines, several historic operations have already faded to memory, noted here as the Mitchells Mill (Site) and Manuel Mill (Site).
