2018 Map of Aberdeen

About this map

Aberdeen sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, where the valley floor meets the dramatic rise of the Sierra Nevada. The terrain transitions from the relatively flat lands traversed by Old Hwy 395 and Tinemaha Rd into the high-altitude wilderness of the Inyo National Forest and Kings Canyon National Park. The map documents a complex system of drainage and water sources essential to this arid region, including Taboose Creek, Goodale Creek, and Division Creek. In the higher elevations, the geography is defined by prominent landmarks like Colosseum Mtn and the steep passage at Sawmill Pass. Significant historical and natural features such as Sawmill Meadows, Shingle Mill Bench, and several named water sources like Harry Birch Springs indicate the intersection of early industry and natural geography in Inyo County.
