1953 Map of Bunker Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Tahoe State Game Refuge and the surrounding Sierra Nevada wilderness are defined by deep canyons and the engineering of the mid-20th century. The Middle Fork American River and the Rubicon River are transformed by the presence of large water projects, most notably French Meadows Reservoir and Hell Hole Reservoir. The 1973 revisions to this survey highlight the extent of these reservoirs, including Anderson Dam and specific spillway elevations. Beyond the infrastructure, the map reveals a landscape of high ridges and named peaks like Bunker Hill and Johnnys Hill. Traces of human activity are sparse but notable, including remote locations such as Murry Camp and Lawyer Cow Camp, along with numerous meadows like Jacobsen Meadow and Big Meadow that suggest a history of seasonal high-country use.
