1971 Map of Fawnskin

About this map

Fawnskin sits on the north shore of Big Bear Lake within the San Bernardino National Forest, serving as a central hub for this high-altitude landscape. The map highlights the transition from lakeside recreation to the historic mining and ranching areas of Holcomb Valley to the north. Evidence of the region’s extractive history is found at the Greenlead Mine and Wright Mine, while the ghost of the gold rush era is marked at the Belleville (Site). Natural features such as Delamar Mtn and Bertha Pk dominate the skyline above complex drainage systems like Grout Creek and Van Dusen Canyon Creek. The presence of the Big Bear Solar Observatory on the tip of Windy Pt indicates the area's importance for scientific research, benefiting from the clear mountain air. Extensive camping facilities at Hanna Flat Campground and Fawnskin Campground illustrate the mid-century growth of outdoor tourism in the San Bernardino Mountains.
