1988 Map of Quinn Peak

About this map

Quinn Peak dominates this high-altitude landscape in the Sierra Nevada, marking a point where the boundaries of the Sequoia National Park and Sequoia National Forest meet. The terrain is characterized by high alpine basins and several clusters of remote water bodies, including Blossom Lakes, Twin Lakes, and Maggie Lakes. Historically, the area supported scattered mountain habitations and resource extraction, evidenced by the presence of the Pine Tree Mine and numerous named dwellings such as Pecks Cabin, Walkers Cabin, and the Nelson Cabin. The transition from forest to wilderness is clear as the landscape rises toward the Great Western Divide, with significant drainages like the South Fork Kaweah River and the Little Kern River carving deep valleys through the Golden Trout Wilderness. This 1980s-era mapping records specific historical locations like the Broders Cabin and Newlywed sites, which remain important markers for backcountry historians.
