1982 Map of Dogtooth Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Sierra National Forest occupies the high-altitude terrain of Fresno County, defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and granite summits. This 1982 survey reveals a landscape utilized for both extraction and backcountry recreation, most notably at the Rainbow Mine near Rainbow Lake and the descriptive Miningtown Meadow. The water system is particularly complex, with Dinkey Creek feeding a string of alpine basins including First Dinkey Lake, South Lake, and Island Lake. Landforms such as Dogtooth Peak and the Three Sisters provide prominent navigational landmarks for those traversing the high country. Evidence of seasonal use appears in scattered locations like Knight Camp and Limestone Campsite, while expansive clearings like Big Meadow and Ershim Meadow Fork break the timberline, illustrating the varied alpine ecology of the Sierra Nevada range.
