1956 Map of Sonora Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Sonora Pass serves as the high-altitude centerpiece of this mid-century survey, marking the dramatic boundary between the Stanislaus National Forest and the Toiyabe National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp divide of the Sierra crest, where Leavitt Peak and Sonora Peak tower over a network of alpine basins. To the east, the West Walker River carves through high meadows, supporting a specialized mountain economy and military presence.
