USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Mount Whitney dominates the eastern edge of this mid-century survey, marking the dramatic boundary where the Sierra Nevada falls away into the Inyo National Forest. The map documents a high-altitude wilderness defined by the Great Western Divide and the Kings-Kern Divide, where the upper reaches of the Kern Canyon separate Kings Canyon National Park from Sequoia National Park.
