1985 Map of Mt. Pinchot

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Kings Canyon National Park and the Inyo National Forest meet along the dramatic crest of the Sierra Nevada in this 1985 provisional study. The geography is defined by high-altitude granite features and glacial basins, including the Upper Basin and Lake Basin, which feed the headwaters of the South Fork Kings River. A primary corridor for high-country travel, the Pacific Crest (John Muir) National Scenic Trail winds through the center of the map, crossing Pinchot Pass between the towering peaks of Mt Pinchot and Mt Wynne. The eastern portion of the map includes the California Bighorn Sheep Zoological Area, a specialized wildlife management zone within the John Muir Wilderness. Mountaineers and backcountry researchers can trace the routes between prominent landmarks like Vennacher Needle, Castle Domes, and Arrow Peak.
