1955 Map of Norden

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Norden and the surrounding high Sierra Nevada summits are meticulously documented in this mid-century topographic record. The landscape is defined by the historic transportation corridor crossing Donner Pass, where the Southern Pacific railroad line winds through complex snowsheds and tunnels. The burgeoning winter recreation industry is evident at Sugar Bowl, featuring an early Aerial Tramway and Ski Lift infrastructure on Mt Lincoln and Mt Disney.
