1952 Map of Loon Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

El Dorado National Forest serves as the backdrop for this mid-century survey of the high Sierras, documented just before significant hydroelectric modifications altered the local hydrology. Loon Lake and the Rubicon River anchor a landscape defined by seasonal ranching and early mountain recreation. Remote outposts like the Schlein Ranger Sta and Francis Cow Camp reflect a time when land management and cattle grazing were the primary human activities in these upper elevations.
