1956 Map of Matterhorn Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Matterhorn Peak stands as the central focal point for this high-altitude survey of the Sierra Nevada, marking the jagged boundary where Yosemite National Park meets the Toiyabe National Forest. The map documents a landscape defined by dramatic geological formations, from the sheer face of The Slide to the numerous alpine basins holding Twin Lakes, Peeler Lake, and Rock Island Lake. Human presence is concentrated in the northeast, where Hunewill Ranch and Mono Village provide glimpses into the region's ranching and early recreation history.
