2012 Map of Mount Goddard

About this map

Mount Goddard dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Sierra Nevada, marking a significant drainage divide between the S Fork San Joaquin River and the Middle Fork Kings River. The terrain is characterized by a dense concentration of alpine basins and granite peaks, including the Ionian Basin and the striking Goddard Divide. This 2012 survey illustrates a complex hydrological network where glacial tarns like Wanda Lake, Martha Lake, and Tunemah Lake feed into descending creeks. Notable geographic features such as Muir Pass and the Enchanted Gorge highlight the difficult paths through these mountains. The naming of peaks like Mount Solomons, Scylla, and Charybdis reflects a classical influence on the nomenclature of this wilderness area.
