1994 Map of Glass Mountain

About this map

Glass Mountain dominates the southern landscape of this 1994 revision, rising above the complex drainage systems of the Inyo National Forest. The map documents a topography defined by steep canyons and seasonal water sources, including Dexter Spring and Canyon Spring in the northern reaches. High-altitude meadows such as Sawmill Meadow and Mc Gee Meadow indicate pockets of flatter terrain amidst the volcanic peaks and ridges. A sparse network of 4wd tracks provides the primary access through this remote portion of Mono County, connecting isolated landmarks like the Gravel Pit near the northern border to the southern heights of Black Mountain and Lake Mountain. This survey reflects the forest management priorities of the late twentieth century, focusing on hydrological features and established primitive routes through the Glass Mountain Ridge.
