1953 Map of Mt. Pinchot

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

John Muir Trail winds through the high Sierra Nevada in this mid-century survey, crossing the dramatic boundary between Kings Canyon National Park and Inyo National Forest. The map documents a rugged landscape defined by high-altitude glacial features like Sixty Lake Basin, Rae Lakes, and the Kearsarge Pinnacles. The eastern slopes above the Owens Valley reveal a legacy of alpine mining, with numerous operations such as the Rex Montis Mine, Glacier Mines, and the Kearsarge Group situated near steep passes. Near the small settlement of Aberdeen, the terrain transitions from the high peaks of Mt Gardiner and Kearsarge Peak down to the springs and gravel pits of the valley floor, including the Declaration Mine (Sand Pit) and Grover Anton Spring.
