1982 Map of Graveyard Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Graveyard Peak stands as a central landmark in this high-altitude survey of the Sierra National Forest, where the complex drainage systems of Fish Creek and Minnow Creek carve through the Silver Divide. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of glacial tarns, including the uniquely named Lake of the Lone Indian, Peter Pande Lake, and the cluster of Graveyard Lakes. This area serves as a critical junction for high-country travel, featuring the John Muir Trail as it crosses Silver Pass. Notable evidence of early resource exploration remains at the Pick and Shovel Mine near Jackson Meadow, contrasting with the surrounding John Muir Wilderness. The topography transitions from the dramatic Vermilion Cliffs down toward the northern reaches of Lake Thomas A. Edison, showing the rugged intersection of massive granite peaks and the delicate meadow systems of the High Sierra.
