About this map

Tahoe City and the surrounding high-altitude communities are detailed during a period of established residential and recreational growth. This survey emphasizes the geography of the Truckee River corridor, documenting the precise layout of lakeshore developments like Sunnyside, Tahoe Park, and Timberland. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure of the region, from the iconic Fanny Bridge to the network of local roads such as Washie Way and Pineland Dr that wind through the Tahoe National Forest.

High peaks and ridgelines, including Mt Watson, Silver Peak, and Ward Peak, define the western edge of the basin. The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail is traced as it traverses the ridges above Alpine Meadows. Inland from the coast of Lake Tahoe, secluded features like Watson Lake and the open expanses of Page Meadows and Antone Meadows highlight the conservation of open space amidst the dense vacation settlements.
