2001 Map of Emigrant Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The high Sierra Nevada backcountry is captured in this survey, where the borders of the Stanislaus National Forest, Yosemite National Park, and Toiyabe National Forest converge. This alpine landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology, centered on the expansive Emigrant Lake and the smaller, high-elevation High Emigrant Lake, Middle Emigrant Lake, and Emigrant Meadow Lake. The terrain is characterized by massive granite formations such as Granite Dome and Black Hawk Mountain, while historical routes like the Corral Spring Trail cross the Emigrant Wilderness. These trails and passes, including Emigrant Pass and Brown Bear Pass, represent the traditional transit corridors through the High Sierra. The map also identifies surveying landmarks and named points of interest such as the Sachse Monument near Maxwell Lake, providing a detailed look at the geography before modern digital updates shifted the mapping of these remote peaks like Relief Peak and Kennedy Peak.
