About this map

The High Sierra landscape is dominated by the intersecting watersheds of the North Fork Stanislaus River and the Middle Fork Stanislaus River. This late-nineteenth-century survey documents a transition in land management, showing the early boundaries of the Stanislaus Forest Reserve and the northern reaches of Yosemite National Park. Human presence is sparse, centered around established outposts like Baker Station, Brightman Flat, and Niagara, which served as critical landmarks for travelers navigating the passes between the central valley and the Great Basin.
