2015 Map of Fawnskin

About this map

Fawnskin and the northern shores of Big Bear Lake anchor this 2015 study of the San Bernardino Mountains. The landscape is defined by the high-elevation basins of Holcomb Valley and Upper Holcomb Valley, areas historically significant for their association with California's gold rush era, though here depicted in their modern forest context within the San Bernardino National Forest. The map traces the winding route of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it traverses the ridges near Delamar Mtn and Bertha Peak, offering a detailed look at the recreational infrastructure that has succeeded the region's earlier industrial ventures.
