1981 Map of Webber Peak

About this map

The high Sierra Nevada divide within the Tahoe National Forest is defined here by a series of significant mountain lakes and the headwaters of major California rivers. Webber Lake sits in the north, feeding into the Little Truckee River, while the Middle Yuba River emerges to the west. This alpine landscape, mapped in the early 1980s, shows the path of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it traverses the ridges above Meadow Lake and Fordyce Lake. Historical mining activity is marked by the Anderson Mine and other unnamed mines near the southern shoreline of Meadow Lake. The map illustrates a complex drainage system where Lacey Creek and Perazzo Creek navigate through wide glacial meadows like Coppins Meadow and Perazzo Meadows.
