2021 Map of Lamont Peak

About this map

Lamont Peak and Chimney Peak anchor this high-elevation landscape where the southern Sierra Nevada meets the desert fringes of eastern California. The area is defined by its drainage systems and high meadows, including Chimney Meadow and Lamont Meadow, which have historically provided vital water sources and grazing grounds in this arid terrain. A network of primitive roads like Canebrake Rd and Sherman Pass Rd provides access to the backcountry, tracing routes that bypass steep drainages like Ninemile Canyon.
