1982 Map of Graveyard Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The high Sierra Nevada landscape of Sierra National Forest is defined here by the steep granite of the Silver Divide and the remote reaches of the John Muir Wilderness. In the early 1980s, this area served as a critical corridor for backpackers and mountaineers, centered on the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds past Silver Pass. Evidence of historical prospecting remains at the Pick and Shovel Mine near Cascade Valley, contrasting with the modern infrastructure of Lake Thomas A Edison and its designated spillway. The map captures a high-elevation world of glacial basins containing Graveyard Lakes and Lake of the Lone Indian, alongside vast meadows like Quail Meadows and Upper Graveyard Meadow that historically supported seasonal travel through the Vermilion Cliffs.
