About this map

McKinney Bay and the western shores of Lake Tahoe define this mid-century survey, which details the transition from lakeside resort communities to the high wilderness of the Tahoe National Forest. Early development along the shoreline is evident at Homewood, Tahoe Pines, and Chambers Lodge, while the interior remains a landscape of prominent peaks and alpine basins. The map documents the rugged geography leading toward the Eldorado National Forest, featuring high-elevation points like Ellis Peak and Twin Peaks.
