2018 Map of Crandall Peak

About this map

Stanislaus National Forest defines the character of this mountain landscape, where deep drainages like Middle Fork Stanislaus River and South Fork Stanislaus River carve through high ridgelines. The map reveals a complex history of infrastructure and recreation, specifically highlighting the Tunnel Cr. R/R Grade and the Stanislaus Tunnel near Mt Knight. These features suggest a legacy of industrial or water-management engineering within the canyon walls. High-elevation landmarks such as Crandall Peak and Schoettgen Pass oversee a network of forest routes and off-highway vehicle trails, including Crandall Pk OHV-M/C. Small outposts like Camp Pendola and Star Ridge are situated among numerous meadows and creek systems, such as Grohl Meadow and Griswold Cr, reflecting the region's long-standing use for both forestry and seasonal retreat.
