About this map

Shuteye Peak stands as the central landmark in this high-altitude section of the Sierra National Forest in Madera County. The landscape is defined by its series of alpine meadows and dramatic geological features, including the South Fork Bluffs and Chiquito Ridge. Named peaks and ridges such as Peckinpah Mtn and Whisky Ridge are interspersed with significant clearing sites like Morgan Meadow and Haskell Meadow.

Human activity is centered around remote outposts and recreational landmarks like Central Camp and the settlement at Whisky Falls. The map reveals a complex network of forest access routes, including the Shuteye Peak OHV Route and the Central Camp Rd, illustrating how modern off-highway vehicle travel utilizes the same corridors once carved for resource management. The intricate drainage system of Browns Creek, Whisky Cr, and Rock Creek flows through these valleys, highlighting the essential watershed role of this mountainous terrain.
