About this map

Sierra National Forest and Sequoia National Forest converge in this high-altitude landscape of Fresno County. The terrain is defined by deep drainages like Blue Canyon and Dinkey Creek, which create a complex network of falls and seasonal springs. The map shows the infrastructure of the Kings River, featuring the Kings River Powerhouse and associated utility markers like the Substation, Surge Tank, and Gaging Station.

Evidence of historical land use and forest management is present in locations such as Haslett Basin and Hog Pasture Corral. Public land administration is a primary focus, visible through the numerous land grant parcels marked PB and the boundary of the Kings River Special Management Area. From the Fence Meadow Heliport Lookout to the heights of Barnes Mountain, this survey illustrates the intersection of industrial power generation and protected wilderness at the start of the 21st century.
