2012 Map of Kirkwood Spring

About this map

Bodie Cr flows through the northern reaches of this high-elevation landscape, where the remnants of early industrial activity are preserved in labels like Gray Mill and the Toll House. These features suggest a history of resource extraction and transit through the high country long before modern recreational use. The terrain is defined by significant elevations, including Brawley Peaks, which overlook the expansive Mono Valley to the south. Water sources are critical in this arid environment, marked here by Kirkwood Spring. The layout of the road network and the presence of Trench Canyon indicate a landscape where travel was dictated by the difficult geography of the eastern Sierra region.
