1986 Map of Kaweah

About this map

Three Rivers stands at the confluence of the mountain waters, where the North Fork Kaweah River and South Fork Kaweah River meet near the western edge of Sequoia National Park. In the mid-1980s, this landscape is defined by the transition from the high ridges of Washburn Cove and Blossom Peak down to the reservoir waters of Lake Kaweah. The map reveals a community deeply tied to recreation and the sierra foothills, with numerous Gaging Stations monitoring the river flow and facilities like the Horse Creek Recreation Area lining the shore.
