USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
The Kern River and its South Fork anchor this 1906 survey of the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains. The landscape is defined by a dense network of high-altitude meadows, including Big Meadow, Cannell Meadow, and Kennedy Meadows, which historically served as crucial summer grazing lands. Human settlement is concentrated along the river valleys at Kernville, Isabella, and Weldon, while the surrounding slopes reveal the region's extractive history through the Big Blue Mine and Bright Star Mine.
