1905 Map of Tehipite

USGS Topo · Published 1929

About this map

Sanger Sawmill and Abbott Mill anchor the timber operations in this High Sierra landscape at the opening of the twentieth century. The map highlights a critical period of early conservation and resource management, showing the boundaries of Sequoia National Park, General Grant National Park, and the surrounding National Forests. The terrain is defined by the deep incisions of the Middle Fork Kings River and South Fork Kings River, leading to landmarks like the massive Tehipite Dome and the Gorge of Despair. Local history is preserved in the location of early ranger stations, including the Hospital Rock Ranger Station, and vanished industrial sites like Harts Sawmill. Geologic and poetic nomenclature meet at Lake of the Fallen Moon and the Volcanic Cone, providing a detailed record of the region before modern development.
