About this map

El Capitan towers over the Merced River in this late 20th-century survey of the valley's western gateway. The map details the transition from the vertical walls of Cathedral Rocks and the Cathedral Spires to the high meadows and forests of the Yosemite Wilderness. Infrastructure for modern park management is evident, including the Arch Rock Entrance, Radio Facilities, and a Sewage Disposal Pond near the valley floor.
