1965 Map of Pine Flat Dam

About this map

The Kings River corridor is dominated by the monumental Pine Flat Dam, a central feature of California's mid-century water management system. This 1960s survey documents the surrounding Pine Flat Reservoir at a normal pool elevation of 951 feet, where public lands like the Island Park Recreation Area and Lakeview Recreation Area provide access to the water's edge. The geography is defined by the meeting of the Sierra National Forest and Sequoia National Forest, with significant elevations such as Tivy Mountain and Harmon Peak rising above the river canyon.
