1953 Map of Mt. Morrison

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Mammoth Lakes and the surrounding Sierra Nevada highlands appear here during the early 1950s, a time when the region's mining heritage and emerging recreation industry existed side-by-side. The map details an active landscape of resource extraction and seasonal habitation, from the Monte Cristo Mine and Mammoth Consolidated Mine to the localized developments at Old Mammoth and Mill City. Local community life is anchored by the St Joseph Ch and Mammoth Sch, while the presence of the Mammoth Ranger Sta and the Los Angeles YMCA Camp points toward the area's transition into a destination for conservation and leisure.
