Great Western Divide and the Kings-Kern Divide meet in this high-altitude landscape where the borders of Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park converge. The terrain is defined by dramatic peaks such as Mt Brewer, Thunder Mtn, and Milestone Mtn, while the headwaters of the Kern River flow south through the Upper Kern Canyon. For backcountry researchers and mountaineers, the map details established routes and stations like the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail and the Tyndall Ranger Station. This topographic record also preserves the location of many remote alpine water bodies, including Lake Reflection and the geographically named Lake South America, situated beneath Caltech Peak.
