1950 Map of Garden Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Eldorado National Forest dominates the eastern ridges of this 1950 survey, where the deep canyons of the South Fork American River define the southern border. The landscape is a legacy of California's gold country, marked by numerous industrial and community landmarks including the Taylor Mine, Nancy Lee Mine, and Black Oak Mine. The settlement of Garden Valley serves as a northern hub, connected to outlying locales like Kelsey and the riverside Chili Bar.
