2004 Map of Mammoth Pool Dam

About this map

The San Joaquin River carves a deep path through this section of the Sierra National Forest, dominated by the engineering and recreational hub of the Mammoth Pool Reservoir. Established as part of the regional hydroelectric network, the reservoir is anchored by the Mammoth Pool Dam and its significant Spillway 3337. Along the western shores, local landmarks like Wagner's Mammoth Pool Resort and Logan Meadow mark areas of human activity within the forest. To the east, the terrain ascends toward the high-elevation lakes and peaks of the Kaiser Wilderness, including Upper Horsethief Lake. Traces of the region's extractive and service history appear at the Wieseman Mine and Daulton Station, while the Minarets Scenic Byway and Mammoth Pool Road provide the primary access through this complex landscape of meadows and steep drainage basins.
