Houseworth 772 - Scene on the Yuba River, near Cisco. In the 1860's view, the Dutch Flat Donner Lake Wagon Road can be seen climbing up and away from the river. The rock walls and fill are still in good shape, and can be seen while driving up Interstate 80. Just above it, the Emigrant Trail climbed up a steep rocky shelf and crossed over a shoulder. In the 1920's, Old Highway 40 was built along the rocks at the bottom of the photos. In 1960 it was removed in this section during the I-80 construction.
