1909 Map of Yosemite

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

Yosemite National Park and the surrounding Sierra National Forest are shown here as they appeared during the transition into the early twentieth century. This sheet documents the landscape before the total flooding of the Hetch Hetchy Valley, noting both the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir and the Lake Eleanor Reservoir. Early infrastructure is visible through a network of ranger stations such as the Tuolumne Grove Ranger Sta and Gentry Ranger Sta, alongside established settlements like El Portal and Wawona.
