About this map

Little Shuteye Peak and the high ridges of the Sierra National Forest define this landscape in eastern Madera County. The terrain is characterized by a high-elevation network of granite outcrops and alpine meadows, including Muglers Meadow, Grizzly Meadow, and the expansive Johnson Meadows. This area serves as a significant drainage basin, with Chiquito Cr and Beashore Cr carving through the granite to form features like Camino Falls.

Historical access to this high country is marked by Beashore Rd and Soda Springs Rd, routes that connect various sub-alpine basins such as Texas Flat and Cold Springs Meadow. Notable landmarks like Globe Rock and the high-altitude Iron Lakes near Iron Mtn provide essential orientation points for those navigating the eastern Sierra Nevada. The map traces the natural topography before the complex drainage systems reach the lower valleys.
