1979 Map of Caples Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Caples Lake and the surrounding high-elevation peaks of the Eldorado National Forest define this 1970s landscape at the intersection of Alpine, Amador, and El Dorado counties. The map documents the early development of Kirkwood, showing the fledgling resort area alongside established recreation sites like Camp Silverado and Schneider Camp. For historians, the sheet preserves the location of the Old Emigrant Trail Historical Marker near the shoreline and the Lost Cabin Mine tucked beneath Black Butte.
