2021 Map of Tragedy Spring

About this map

Tragedy Spring and the nearby Maiden's Grave offer a silent record of the difficult overland journeys through the High Sierra within the Eldorado National Forest. Situated along the Carson Emigrant National Recreation Trail, these landmarks highlight the precarious nature of travel during the mid-19th century westward migration. The landscape is defined by its series of high meadows and ridges, including Government Meadow, Convict Meadow, and Jake Schneider Meadow, which served as critical waypoint grazing for livestock on the trail.
