1955 Map of Tahoe

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Lake Tahoe dominates this mid-century survey, its western shoreline bustling with mid-century development from Kings Beach and Tahoe Vista in the north down to Tahoma and Meeks Bay. The landscape shows a region transitioning into a premier recreation destination, evidenced by the Brockway Golf Course and numerous lodges like Tahoe Tavern and Chambers Lodge. Beyond the immediate waterfront, the terrain rises sharply toward the Tahoe National Forest and Eldorado National Forest, where the Truckee River begins its descent from Tahoe City.
