Map of Sierra Nevada, Yosemite 1868

We love Yosemite, and we love these detailedĀ historicalĀ maps that give us an intriguing glimpse into its past. This map of the Sierra NevadaĀ is from The Yosemite Book, published in 1868, which was the result of a government surveyĀ lead by J.D. Watkins started five years earlier. The survey resulted in the most accurate and detailed maps of the Yosemite Valley and the surrounding area from the time. Soon after, President Lincoln signed into law the Yosemite Land Grant giving the Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove to the state of California. In 1890,Ā Yosemite became a National Park and in 1906 President Roosevelt brought it back under government control and expanded the National Park to the entire region we know it as today.

This is a reproduction print of the highest quality printed on heavyweight archival paper and inks.
