1988 Map of Lodgepole

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The High Sierra backcountry of Sequoia National Park is revealed here as it was surveyed in the 1980s, centering on the recreational and administrative hubs at Lodgepole and Wolverton. This area is characterized by the dramatic transition from the massive sequoia stands of the Giant Forest, including the Congress Group, to the high-elevation alpine basins surrounding Alta Peak and the Tableland. The map documents early park history through landmarks like Tharps Log and the Pear Lake Ranger Station, which serve as waypoints for the trail system traversing Tokopah Valley and the Sevenmile Hill area. Further south, the terrain drops into the drainages of the Middle Fork Kaweah River and Castle Creek, where protected groves like the Redwood Meadow Grove and Castle Creek Grove signify the deep wilderness character of the southern Sierra Nevada.
