1952 Map of Kyburz

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

South Fork American River flows through the southern reaches of this mountain landscape, serving as a corridor for settlement and infrastructure within the Eldorado National Forest. The community of Kyburz is a focal point, supported by the Silver Fork School and various water management features including a Gaging Station and several Water Tanks. The map reveals a post-war environment where early forest management and pioneer-era grazing intersect, marked by family-named landmarks like Jones Place, Wilson Ranch, and the Windmiller Cabin. Moving away from the river, the terrain rises sharply toward Cheese Camp Ridge and Peavine Ridge, with narrow routes like the Windmiller Trail and multiple jeep trails providing access to high-elevation points such as Four Cornered Peak and Sugarloaf.
