1955 Map of Fallen Leaf Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Lake Tahoe and the high alpine basins of the Crystal Range dominate this mid-century topographic study. The map documents the mid-1950s landscape of the Sierra Nevada, where recreational development and ranching history meet. Landmarks like Vikingholm on Emerald Bay stand alongside organized youth and municipal retreats such as the Berkeley Municipal Camp and Camp Cody (BSA). The transition from the rugged Desolation Valley Wild Area to the settled lakefront is clear, showing established communities like Tallac Village and Tahoe Valley near the marshes.
