2012 Map of Twin Lakes

About this map

Twin Lakes and the surrounding high-country basins define this Mono County landscape during the early 21st century. The map illustrates a high concentration of recreational infrastructure, from the Lower Twin Lakes Resort and Docand Als Resort to numerous campgrounds like Honeymoon Flat Campground and Sawmill Campground. Settlement patterns are concentrated around the water, notably at the Eagle Nest Summer Home Area and Upper Twin Lakes Summer Home Area, while the agricultural legacy of the region remains visible at the Hunewill Ranch on the edge of Bridgeport Valley. Geothermal activity is marked by the Buckeye Hot Spring near the northern boundary. The intricate drainage network of Robinson Cr, Buckeye Cr, and the E Walker River shows how water moves through this terrain, eventually reaching the high-altitude Tamarack Lake at the southern edge of the sheet.
