1898 Map of Dardanelles

About this map

Middle Fork Stanislaus River and its intricate drainage system define this High Sierra landscape during the late nineteenth-century surveying period. The map details a transition from the Stanislaus National Forest into the northern reaches of Yosemite National Park, capturing the region as it was understood before modern infrastructure. Travel through these granite heights is marked by the Old Sonora Road and high-altitude crossings like Sonora Pass and Bond Pass.
