1986 Map of Rough Spur

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Wishon Reservoir and the Wishon Dam anchor the northwest corner of this high-altitude landscape, where the North Fork Kings River carves through the dramatic Granite Gorge. The map illustrates a transition from the managed resources of the Sierra National Forest into the protected expanses of the John Muir Wilderness and Monarch Wilderness. A network of meadows and seasonal water sources, such as Round Corral Meadow, Cow Meadow, and Garlic Meadow Creek, suggests a landscape used for seasonal grazing and wilderness recreation. Human activity is concentrated near the reservoir, evidenced by the Pack Station, Cliff Camp, and a Gaging Station monitoring river flows. Deep within the wilderness areas, the terrain is defined by prominent ridges and peaks like Rodgers Ridge and Hoffman Mtn, with remote alpine water bodies including Spanish Lake and the Geraldine Lakes scattered throughout the high basins.
