1983 Map of Mt. Henry

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Mt Henry stands as a central sentinel in this high-altitude landscape where the John Muir Wilderness meets the northern reaches of Kings Canyon National Park. Surveyed in the late 1970s, the map documents the convergence of the South Fork San Joaquin River and various glacial basins. The presence of the John Muir Trail Cabin and the winding Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail highlights the area's significance for early wilderness travel and trail infrastructure. To the east, the Matthes Glaciers and Glacier Divide dominate the terrain, while the Red Mountain Basin provides a complex cluster of alpine waters, including Disappointment Lake and Hell for Sure Lake. The transition from Evolution Meadow into the Evolution Valley illustrates the classic glacial staircase topography characteristic of the high Sierra.
