2001 Map of Disaster Peak

About this map

Disaster Peak stands as a prominent sentinel at the heart of the Carson Iceberg Wilderness, marking a high-elevation landscape where the Alpine and Tuolumne County line follows the drainage divides. The terrain is defined by a series of significant summits, including Stanislaus Peak and Boulder Peak, which rise above high-country meadows and alpine water bodies. The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through this region, following the crest between the Stanislaus National Forest and the Toiyabe National Forest. Notable water features such as Carson Falls and the headwaters of the East Fork Carson River illustrate the hydrology of these protected lands. Unusual geological formations like The Iceberg and Whitecliff Peak provide distinct landmarks for those studying the physical geography of the Sierra Nevada near the turn of the 21st century.
