1962 Map of New Melones Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Stanislaus River carves through the canyonlands of Calaveras and Tuolumne counties, where water management and mining history converge. This survey shows the early footprint of New Melones Lake held by the Melones Dam, and downstream, the Tulloch Reservoir behind Tulloch Dam. The landscape is a record of transition from the Gold Rush era to the modern hydraulic age, preserving the Central Ferry (Site) and the O'Byrne Ferry Historical Monument along the river banks.
