2021 Map of Martis Peak

About this map

The Truckee River carves through the Truckee Canyon in this study of the Sierra Nevada's eastern slopes, where the town of Truckee sits as a central hub. The landscape is defined by the transition from the high peaks of the Carson Range, including Martis Peak and Mt Baldy, down into the broad meadowlands of Martis Valley and Buck Meadows. This 2021 survey illustrates a sophisticated network of residential development in the northern reaches, with streets like Berkshire Cir and Cavalier Rise contrasted against the vast managed wildlands of the Tahoe National Forest and Toiyabe National Forest. Historically significant points like Union Mills and Hirschdale underscore the area's timber and transit roots, while Brockway Summit marks the critical passage toward the Tahoe basin. The map reveals how the modern wildland-urban interface is structured around ancient drainage systems like Martis Cr and Middle Martis Cr.
