Inyo National Forest and the John Muir Wilderness dominate this 1982 survey, capturing the dramatic elevation change from the valley floor to the high sierra. The map highlights the essential infrastructure for access to the high peaks, including Whitney Portal Road and the established Whitney Portal Campground and Whitney Portal Picnic Area. To the east, the distinct geological formations of the Alabama Hills and Movie Flat are documented within the Alabama Hills Recreation Area, illustrating the region's long-standing importance for both recreation and the film industry. High-altitude hydrology is meticulously charted, from the Cottonwood Lakes and Muir Lake in the south to the glacier-carved Meysan Lake and Lone Pine Lake tucked beneath the granite faces of Mount Langley and Lone Pine Peak.
