1981 Map of Hobart Mills

About this map

Hobart Mills stands as the central settlement in this high-elevation landscape within the Tahoe National Forest. The geography is defined by the management of water and timber, evidenced by the expansive reaches of the Stampede Reservoir and Prosser Creek Reservoir. For historians, the map preserves the locations of early industrial activity at the Old Smith Mill (Site) and the Winnie Smith Mill (Site), marking the region's transition from active lumber production to a focus on conservation and recreation.
