2021 Map of Chagoopa Falls

About this map

Sequoia National Park encompasses this high Sierra landscape, dominated by the deep gorge of the Kern Wild and Scenic River. The map details a complex network of backcountry routes, including the Kern Canyon Trl and Chagoopa Plateau Trl, which connect remote landmarks like Kern Hot Spring and the expansive Sky Parlor Meadow. To the west, the Chagoopa Plateau rises above the drainage of the Big Arroyo, holding high-altitude water bodies such as Moraine Lake. The topographic relief is extreme, transitioning from the lush Funston Meadow on the canyon floor to the dramatic heights of the Window Cliffs. This survey serves as a precise guide to the trail systems and hydrological features of the Sierra Nevada as they appeared in the early twenty-first century.
