2021 Map of El Capitan

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Yosemite National Park and portions of the Sierra National Forest are documented in this contemporary survey, centering on the iconic granite formations and glacially carved landscapes of the Yosemite Valley. The sheer verticality of the terrain is represented through landmarks like El Capitan, Cathedral Spires, and the Leaning Tower. This map provides a detailed view of the corridor along the Merced Wild and Scenic River, where numerous springs such as Black Spring and Fern Spring emerge below the Rockslides. Settlement patterns are concentrated in the residential community of Yosemite West and the mountain hamlet of Foresta. The survey also traces the historic transportation network, from the Old Wawona Road Trl to the high-elevation routes around Badger Pass, illustrating how the valley's rim is connected via trails like the Pohono Trl.
