1956 Map of Lamont Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Rockhouse Basin and the winding South Fork Kern River anchor this mid-century survey of the high mountain terrain where Sequoia National Forest and Inyo National Forest meet. The landscape is defined by a series of high-altitude meadows, including Kennedy Meadows, Sacatar Meadow, and Lamont Meadow, which reflect the historic importance of seasonal grazing in the Sierra Nevada. Several prospects are noted in the ridges above Long Valley, pointing to small-scale mineral exploration that once dotted these slopes.
