About this map

The Lumber R.R. winds through the northeast corner of this 1949 survey, tracing a path for timber extraction through the Stanislaus National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the deep drainage of the Clavey River and its numerous tributaries, including Reed Creek and Bear Creek. Evidence of high-country habitation and industry is scattered throughout, from the named settlements of Emmons and Camp 45 to the established Quinn Ranch. Prominent peaks like Duckwall Mtn and Thompson Peak overlook a network of seasonal meadows such as Thompson Meadow and Round Meadow. The presence of the Mt Diablo Base Line serves as a fundamental surveying landmark, while natural springs like Indian Spr and Rackerby Jack Spr mark the importance of water sources in this steep terrain of the central Sierra Nevada foothills.
