1958 Map of Lone Pine

About this map

The Alabama Hills and the steep eastern escarpment of the Sierra Nevada define this mid-century landscape in the Owens Valley. From the settlement of Lone Pine, the Whitney Portal Road leads toward the high peaks of Sequoia National Park, including Mount Langley and Lone Pine Peak. The map documents critical water infrastructure of the era, most notably the Los Angeles Aqueduct and the Owens River, alongside irrigation features like the Eclipse Ditch and Mc Iver Ditch.
