2021 Map of Glass Mountain

About this map

Glass Mtn and the high Glass Mtn Ridge dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Inyo National Forest. This 2021 survey details a complex system of drainage and seasonal water flow, where the Wet Fork and Dry Fork illustrate the hydrological variation of the California interior. The map reveals a land defined by its meadows, such as McGee Meadow, Sawmill Meadow, and Kelty Meadows, which serve as vital hubs for the local ecology and historical stock movement. Transportation is limited to rugged forest routes and established paths like the Kelty Stock Trl and 29e103 Trl, indicating the area's primary use for wilderness management and recreation rather than permanent settlement. The deep incisions of Sawmill Canyon and O'Harrel Canyon provide a clear view of the geological folding and erosion typical of this part of Mono County.
