1952 Map of Tehipite Dome

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Tehipite Dome towers over the Tehipite Valley in this high-altitude landscape where the Middle Fork Kings River carves through the Gorge of Despair. The map documents a critical intersection of federal lands, including the John Muir Wilderness and the Gen Grant Grove Section Kings Canyon Nat Park. In the southern reaches, the presence of numerous Sierra Redwood groves like the Converse Basin Grove and the Windy Gulch Grove highlights the area's botanical significance. Human presence is concentrated around Hume and Hume Lake, while more remote outposts like the Crown Valley Guard Station and Bartons Resort serve as waypoints for wilderness travel. Notable natural landmarks such as Boyden Cave and the massive Boole Tree stand as significant historical and recreational destinations within the Sequoia National Forest.
