1905 Map of Olancha

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Kern River watershed dominates this high-altitude survey, documenting the transition from the arid Owens Valley floor to the granite peaks of the Sequoia National Park. Along the eastern edge, the Southern Pacific RR skirts the shoreline of the valley, passing the small settlements of Cartago and Olancha. The map captures a wilderness landscape defined by glaciated features, including the Chagoopa Plateau and the Boreal Plateau, where high meadows like Sky Parlor Meadow and Siberian Outpost sit among unnamed peaks.
