1950 Map of Wolf

About this map

The Camp Beale Military Reservation dominates the western half of this landscape, reflecting a period of significant military land use in Northern California. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and hills, including Bald Mtn, Iron Mtn, and Bald Rock Mtn, while the southern border is traced by the winding course of the Bear River. This mid-century survey documents the transition from early ranching and mining to modern infrastructure, showing the Pine Hill Mine and scattered small-scale agriculture near Wolf. Water management is a primary feature of the local economy, evidenced by an extensive network of human-made structures like the Ditch, Flume, and Canal that traverse the hillsides. Family and community landmarks, such as Cranston Ranch and Banner Grange, provide essential reference points for genealogists tracing regional history in the Nevada Co and Placer Co borderlands.
