1949 Map of Shingle Springs

About this map

Shingle Springs and the surrounding El Dorado County foothills are defined by a legacy of resource extraction and early ranching as they appeared in the late 1940s. The Southern Pacific railroad cuts through the landscape, connecting settlements like Rescue, Skinners, and the small community at Frenchtown. The map documents a significant mining presence, marking several inactive sites such as the Funny Bug Mine, Pyramid Mine, and Crystal Mine, alongside the Shaw Mine Mill.
