1950 Map of Devil Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Eldorado National Forest terrain dominates this mid-century survey, defined by the deep winding path of the Rubicon River as it carves through the Sierra Nevada foothills. The landscape is a map of waning industrial activity, marked by several dormant mining operations such as the Clydesdale Mine and the Pigeon Roost Mine. These sites, along with a solitary Ruin near Zuver, point to a period of earlier resource extraction that has since transitioned toward timber and ranching. Small settlements and specialized dwellings like Blacksmith Flat, Vaughn Cabin, and Pilot Creek House are scattered across the high ridges, connected by a network of trails rather than developed roads.
