1950 Map of Riverton

About this map

The South Fork American River carves through the central landscape of this 1950 survey, serving as the primary corridor for settlement and utility. Small outposts and landings like Riverton and White Hall are tucked into the river valley, while the surrounding high ground of Peavine Ridge and Big Hill Ridge is marked by forestry and early recreational infrastructure. Evidence of the mid-century timber and mountain economy is visible through the presence of a Sawmill near the Big Bend Sch and several remote landmarks like Potts Cabin and the McConnel Place.
