1955 Map of Fallen Leaf Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The southwest corner of Lake Tahoe serves as a gateway to the high Sierra Nevada, where mid-century recreational development meets a landscape defined by glacial activity. The settlement at South Lake Tahoe and the nearby Camp Richardson reflect the era's growing tourism, while the interior is preserved as the Desolation Valley Wild Area. Water management is evident through various infrastructure, including a Gaging Sta and multiple spillways such as Spillway 6377 at Fallen Leaf Lake.
