1956 Map of Mineral King

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Silver City and the surrounding high Sierra landscape appear here in the mid-1950s, a period defined by the careful management of the Sequoia National Park and Sequoia National Forest. The map documents the remnants of early industry and habitation, including the Atwell Mill and the Dillon Mill (Site), as the region transitioned toward recreation and conservation. High-altitude outposts like the Hockett Ranger Sta and the Mineral King Guard Sta provided seasonal administration for the backcountry trails.
