1956 Map of Tuolumne Meadows

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Tuolumne Meadows serves as the central hub of high-altitude activity in this 1950s survey of the High Sierra. The map details a network of high-country outposts including Glen Aulin High Sierra Camp, May Lake High Sierra Camp, and Vogelsang High Sierra Camp, illustrating the established hiking and pack-train culture of the era. Settlement footprints are sparse, represented by the Parsons Memorial Lodge and the high-elevation site of Bennettville near the park's eastern boundary.
