2000 Map of Westville

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Tahoe National Forest dominates this California landscape, where the steep canyons of the North Fork American River shaped the mining and logging history of Placer and El Dorado counties. This 2000 revision reveals a geography defined by subterranean gold exploration, featuring an extensive network of tunnels such as the Mountain Gate Tunnel, Alameda Tunnel, and Cape Horn Tunnel. While many former townsites are marked as historic locations, including Spring Westville (Site) and Damascus (Site), the map also reflects modern forestry and recreation management through the Giant Sequoia Plantation and the China Wall Staging Area. The transition from old ranching outposts like Elliot Ranch to established forest roads like Foresthill Divide Road illustrates the long-term evolution of access into these high ridges and deep river bars.
