2021 Map of Homewood

About this map

Homewood and Tahoma anchor the western shore of Lake Tahoe in this detailed survey of the Sierra Nevada's eastern slopes. The residential and resort corridors along W Lake Blvd contrast with the expansive backcountry of the Tahoe National Forest and Eldorado National Forest. High-elevation landmarks such as Stanford Rock, Ellis Peak, and Barker Peak overlook a landscape carved by Blackwood Creek and the headwaters of the Rubicon River. The map highlights a complex network of recreational routes, including the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail and the Tahoe Rim Trail, which navigate the ridgelines of Blackwood Ridge and Knee Ridge. Numerous alpine basins are documented, from Miller Lake to the secluded Richardson Lake, illustrating the transition from the developed lakefront at McKinney Bay to the protected wilderness spanning the Placer and El Dorado county line.
