1953 Map of Mt. Pinchot

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Kings Canyon National Park and Inyo National Forest meet at the crest of the High Sierra in this early 1950s survey. The John Muir Trail winds through a high-altitude landscape dominated by massive peaks like Mt Pinchot and Mount Ickes, connecting remote basins such as the Sixty Lake Basin and the Gardiner Basin Lakes. This era of the backcountry is marked by its isolation and the prevalence of pack trails over roads, with the South Fork Kings River serving as a primary drainage for the melting snowfields of the Upper Basin.
