1948 Map of Stanislaus

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Stanislaus National Forest landscape is defined by the steep canyons and timbered slopes of the Sierra Nevada as they appeared shortly after the war. The map reveals the infrastructure of early 20th-century resource management, from the Utica Ditch and Hunter Reservoir to the Powerhouse located at Stanislaus along the river. Transportation patterns of the era are visible in the Ebbetts Pass Highway and the Lumber RR tracks north of Griswold Creek. Local history is anchored by settlements like Avery and Hathaway Pines, while the presence of the Stanislaus Grove Big Trees marks the eastern reach of the quadrangle. High-country landmarks such as McCormick Lookout and Doud Hill oversee a landscape still deeply tied to its logging and hydroelectric roots.
