George Karl Ludwig Preuss (1803–1854), anglicized as Charles Preuss, was a surveyor and cartographer who accompanied John C. Fremont on three of his five exploratory expeditions of the American west, including the expedition where he and Fremont were the first to record seeing Lake Tahoe from a mountaintop vantage point as they traversed what is now Carson Pass in February 1844.

  • Charles Preuss (né George Karl Ludwig Preuss ; 1803-1854) était un cartographe qui a accompagné l'explorateur John Charles Frémont dans ses expéditions dans l'Ouest américain, notamment celles où lui et Frémont ont été les premiers à rapporter avoir vu le lac Tahoe depuis un point de vue dans la montagne en février 1844. Il participe à des explorations jusqu'à ce qu'il atteigne 50 ans. Un an plus tard, il se suicide. La sobriété de son journal de l'expédition contraste avec l'exubérance de celui de Frémont, exprimant souvent avec humour des sentiments mélancoliques. (fr)
