2000 Map of Webber Peak

About this map

Webber Peak towers over the high alpine terrain of Tahoe National Forest, where the headwaters of several major watersheds converge. This landscape is defined by its glaciated basins and meadows, including Coppins Meadow and Perazzo Meadows, which feed the Little Truckee River and the Middle Yuba River. The historical importance of this corridor is evident in the presence of Henness Pass Road, a significant 19th-century immigrant route that traverses the northern sections. In the south, the Anderson Mine and various unlabeled mine sites suggest the area's prospecting history, while the modern recreational character is established through the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail and Lola Montez Trail. Large water bodies like Fordyce Lake and Webber Lake are central features, alongside smaller alpine basins such as White Rock Lake and Sand Ridge Lake.
