1992 Map of Wawona
USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
Wawona serves as a central hub within this high-elevation landscape, where the South Fork Merced River carves through the transition between the Sierra National Forest and Yosemite National Park. The map reveals a community focused on recreation and preservation, featuring the Golf Course, the Wawona Sewage Disposal Plant, and the local Wawona Sch. Historical transit and infrastructure are represented by the Wawona Road and a notable Covered Bridge crossing the river. To the south and west, the Chowchilla Mountains and Turner Ridge define the steep drainage basins of Elevenmile Creek and Chilnualna Creek. Several remote sites, such as Stovepipe Campground, Summit Campground, and the high-altitude Empire Meadows, underscore the area's role as a gateway to the Yosemite Wilderness. Landmarks like Mount Savage and Devil Peak provide fixed points for navigating the terrain before it reaches the park's deeper interior.
