2021 Map of Cache Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Piute Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Kern County, centered on the prominent summit of Cache Peak. The region is defined by its complex topography and critical water management systems, notably the Los Angeles Aqueduct and the Second Los Angeles Aqueduct cutting through the southeastern corner. A network of seasonal and perennial springs, such as Peeping Tom Spring, Ruth Camp Spring, and Golden Oaks Spring, provide vital water sources in this arid environment. The map captures the path of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl as it winds along Sweet Ridge, offering a view into the rugged transit routes through the Sierra Nevada and into the Mojave Desert. Local ranching or forestry history is suggested by the presence of Weldon Pond and several named flats and canyons, including Airplane Flat and Pine Tree Canyon.
