1988 Map of Kern Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Kern Peak and the high Sierra Nevada landscape dominate this high-altitude survey of Tulare County. The area is defined by the protected lands of the Inyo National Forest and the Golden Trout Wilderness, where complex drainage patterns are formed by Golden Trout Creek and the South Fork Kern River. A distinct volcanic character is evident in the northern portion of the map, specifically around the Malpais and Volcano Meadow. This 1980s data records the wilderness infrastructure of the era, including the isolated Tunnel FS Station and numerous alpine crossings such as Right Stringer Pass and Saddle Camp Pass. The presence of the Natural Bridge and geological landmarks like Three Rocks highlights a terrain largely shaped by natural forces rather than permanent settlement.
