About Twin Bridges, California
Twin Bridges is a small unincorporated community on U.S. Route 50 near the Desolation Wilderness in El Dorado County, California. It is located 5 miles (8 km) west of Echo Summit, at an elevation of 6,115 feet (1,864 m). It has a population of 14 people according to census figures, however, as of 2008, the road sign lists the population as 10. Right after the town, the U.S. 50 eastbound starts a steep ascent to Echo Summit, passing Sierra-at-Tahoe ski resort shortly before the summit.
When snow chains are required on the summit, Caltrans often establishes chain control in Twin Bridges.It is likely because of the limited availability of shoulders where chains can be installed on summit approaches.
The ZIP codes are 95721 and 95735. The community is inside area code 530.
The former ski area Edelweiss was just above Twin Bridges on US-50, at what is now called Camp Sacramento. It was the home hill for future Olympian ski racer Spider Sabich. He was raised in Kyburz, twelve miles (19 km) west, in the 1950s and early 1960s.
A post office opened in Twin Bridges in 1947.
