1956 Map of Hetch Hetchy Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Hetch Hetchy Reservoir and the surrounding high Sierra wilderness are meticulously documented in this mid-century survey of Yosemite National Park. The map centers on the water-carved granite of the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne River, tracing the river's path from Muir Gorge through Pate Valley and into the reservoir. This era shows the developed infrastructure of the park before modern expansions, including the footprint of White Wolf and the primitive Old Tioga Road.
