About this map

June Lake and its neighboring alpine waters form the core of this Sierra Nevada landscape in the early 1990s. The map illustrates a developed recreation and utility network, where the June Mtn Ski Area and numerous campgrounds contrast with the industrial presence of an aqueduct, a tramway, and multiple transmission lines. The unusual hydrology of Reversed Creek flows toward Gull Lake and June Lake, while the stark volcanic features of the Mono Craters and Obsidian Dome dominate the eastern and southern terrain.

Evidence of the region's geological and resource history is visible in the scattered prospects and gravel pits. Local transit and infrastructure are anchored by June Lake Junction and the supply lines feeding the Mono Basin National Forest Scenic Area. The map captures the interface between the Ansel Adams Wilderness and the active management of the Inyo National Forest, showing a landscape defined by both conservation and high-altitude tourism.
