About this map

Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon National Park converge in this mid-century survey, which identifies the protected groves of Sierra Redwoods. The landscape is defined by the winding Generals Highway connecting vital infrastructure like the Big Stump Entrance Station and the Colony Mill Ranger Station. This era shows a well-established recreational and scientific presence in the high Sierra, from the Whitaker Forest research station to the Crystal Spring Campground.
