About this map

Hot Springs and the surrounding high country of the Sequoia National Forest anchor this mid-century tactical survey. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the White River and Poso Creek, where steep drainages such as Starvation Creek and Nigger Creek carve through the Baker Range. Small outposts and named settlements like Pine Flat, Cranston, and Berry reflect a history of mountain habitation and forestry service, while landmarks such as Grist Mill Peak suggest early industrial attempts to harness the region's timber or water power. This map provides a detailed view of the terrain transitioning across the Tulare and Kern County line, documenting numerous mountain peaks including Tobias Peak, Sunday Peak, and King George Peak. For the genealogist or local historian, it identifies specific locales such as Holey Meadow, Double Bunk, and Dunlap Meadow that were part of the early twentieth-century backcountry infrastructure.
