1983 Map of Mt. Darwin

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Evolution Basin and the Glacier Divide form the core of this high-altitude survey, documenting the transition between the Sierra National Forest and Kings Canyon National Park. The landscape is defined by its glacial features, from the Goethe Glacier to the Mt Fiske Glacier, alongside the prominent peaks of the John Muir Wilderness. Mountaineers and backcountry researchers can trace the route of the John Muir Trail as it winds past McClure Meadow and the McClure Meadow Ranger Station. The map illustrates a complex network of alpine water bodies, including Goethe Lake, Wanda Lake, and the aptly named Hungry Packer Lake. This 1980s data records the topographical state of the Fresno and Inyo county line before modern shifts in glacial mass, providing a baseline for environmental historians and hikers studying the Piute Pass corridor and the surrounding crags.
