1953 Map of Wentworth Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Wentworth Springs and its nearby campground sit at the center of this 1953 survey, which was updated in the early 1970s to reflect the expansion of the Hell Hole Reservoir. The landscape is defined by the high-elevation divide between the Tahoe and Eldorado National Forests, where the Rubicon River carves through the Red Cliffs. Local landmarks like Hell Half Acre and The Pinnacles speak to the difficult geography that early surveyors and miners encountered.
