1992 Map of Tehipite Dome

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Tehipite Dome stands as a massive granite landmark above the Tehipite Valley, marking a point where the high wilderness of the Sierra National Forest meets the northern reaches of Kings Canyon National Park. This 1990s provisional survey documents a landscape defined by deep glacial canyons and prominent ridges, including Tombstone Ridge and Kettle Ridge. The Middle Fork Kings River carves through the lower half of the sheet, joined by tributaries such as Silver Creek and Crown Creek. While the terrain is largely protected wilderness, human activity is noted at the Crown Valley Station and the Randle Corral, reflecting the long-standing use of these meadows for seasonal livestock and backcountry management. Significant peaks like Castle Peak and the high elevation Elizabeth Lake define the northern boundary, illustrating the transition from forested basins to high alpine meadows like Large Meadow.
