1952 Map of Westville

About this map

The North Fork American River carves a deep path through this mid-century landscape in the Tahoe National Forest. The map documents a rugged era of extraction and early settlement where the high ridges of Sawtooth Ridge and Humbug Ridge are dotted with complex mining infrastructure. Subterranean networks like the Mountain Gate Tunnel, Golden River Tunnel, and Osborne Tunnel reveal the intensity of gold-seeking efforts along the Forest Hill Divide.
