About this map

The High Sierra landscape around Lake Tahoe is documented here during the late nineteenth century, a period when the region was defined by early resort outposts and rugged mountain transit. The southwestern shores of the lake are clearly marked with historic stops such as Tallac, Yanks, and the picturesque Emerald Bay. Inland, the terrain is dotted with early settler family names and remote stations like Uncle Toms Cabin and Phillips, indicating the early human footprint before the era of modern development.
