About this map

Tahoe National Forest landscape in the early 1950s is defined by a dense network of mining operations and remote mountain settlements throughout Placer County. The terrain is dominated by the North Fork of North Fork American River and the high elevations of Sawtooth Ridge, where the Southern Pacific railroad follows the contours near Blue Canyon. The map reveals the intricate subsurface infrastructure of the era, marking numerous tunnels such as the Mountain Gate Tunnel, Jarvis Tunnel, and Golden River Tunnel.
