1979 Map of Dardanelles Cone

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Stanislaus National Forest and Toiyabe National Forest meet in this high-altitude landscape, centered on the dramatic volcanic formation of Dardanelles Cone. The 1970s terrain is defined by a network of drainage canyons including Highland Canyon and Hiram Canyon, leading toward the Clark Fork in the south. Recreational development of the era is evident at Liahona Camp and various lakeside sites like Highland Lakes Campground. A single stretch of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail traverses the northeastern corner near Wolf Creek Pass, marking a period of formalized wilderness preservation. The map also records the jurisdictional boundary between Alpine and Tuolumne counties, winding through rugged peaks like Airola Peak and Folger Peak. This survey documents a transition from utilitarian pack trails to modern forest management and seasonal mountain tourism.
