1951 Map of Camp Far West

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Camp Far West Reservoir serves as a central landmark in this 1951 landscape, where the Bear River forms a winding border between Yuba, Nevada, and Placer counties. This survey captures a moment when the Camp Beale Military Reservation dominated the northern terrain, characterized by expansive ranch lands and ravines like Albion Ravine and Long Ravine. The map provides significant genealogical and industrial value, noting the Dairy Farm Mine and the Lofton Cem. Of particular historical interest is the designation of the Camp Far West (Historic Site) and the Spenceville (Site), marking the locations of former pioneer-era settlements. To the south, the Thermalands area and the Valley View School indicate the early 20th-century educational and agricultural infrastructure supporting local families and the Camp Far West Ranch.
