1953 Map of Mt. Morrison

About this map

Mammoth Lakes and the high alpine landscapes of the Sierra Nevada anchor this 1953 survey, which documents the region's mid-century transition from a mining and ranching economy to a recreational center. Along the slopes of Mammoth Mtn, the presence of the Old Mammoth Mine, Monte Cristo Mine, and the Mammoth Consolidated Mine points to the area's geological wealth, while the Mammoth Ranger Sta and Big Spring Campground signal its growing importance for federal forest management.
