San Gorgonio Wilderness

This giant wilderness mountain is one of the largest and tallest peaks in the Southern California region. The mountain separates the Big Bear Lake area from the Palm Springs desert – and is only accessible by a few dirt roads while lead to trailheads for horses and hiking trails. Day Hiking and Backpacking is very popular here in warmer months, as well as horse-packing trips.

Very few aspen groves grow in Southern California, so this one is worth a visit.

Moab Utah Maps: Arches National Park

Arches National Park Map

Arches National Park Map – a full color, two sided topographic map from Trails Illustrated, National Geographic. Natural arches of all shapes and sizes, in famous red rock country, Indian Rock Art Petroglyphs. Hiking trails, picnic areas and campgrounds are featured on this map, as well as all paved roads and dirt roads.

Summer is not the time to visit this terrain, due to excess heat during June, July and August.

Delicate Arch, the most popular hiking trail.

Although the National Park’s terrain may appear rugged and durable, it is extremely fragile. More than one million visitors each year threaten the fragile high-desert ecosystem. The problem lies within the soil’s crust, which is composed of cyanobacteria, algae, fungi, and lichens that grow in the dusty parts of the park. Factors that make Arches National Park sensitive to visitor damage include being a semiarid region, the scarce, unpredictable rainfall, lack of deep freezing, and lack of plant litter, which results in soils that have both a low resistance to, and slow recovery from, compressional forces such as foot traffic.

Above Arches National Park

Climb Balanced Rock or any named or unnamed arch in Arches National Park with an opening larger than 3 feet is banned by park regulations. Climbing on other features in the park is allowed, but regulated; in addition, slack-lining and base jumping are banned park wide.

Approved recreational activities include auto touring, hiking, bicycling, camping at the Devils Garden campground, backpacking, canyoneering, and rock climbing, with permits required for the last three activities. Astronomy is also popular in the park due to its dark skies, despite the increasing light pollution from towns such as Moab

REALLY OLD EDITION

Mineral King Valley is inside the southern portion of SEQUOIA NATIONAL PARK. Mountain passes access high Sierra terrain (only by foot trail) w/ Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon Highcountry and Golden Trout Wilderness.

camp maps The paved road access into this canyon (Mineral King Road) does become a dirt road for a few miles, about half way in. Pavement resumes and continues to the end – where the trailhead parking and campground is situated. Numerous creeks flow through this mountain region.

backpacking & campground camping –

This spectacular mountain setting is quite different from the rest of the Sequoia National Park. Backpackers can arrive late and sleep at the walk-in camps of Cold Springs Campground.

Access to high elevation trailheads; alpine lakes and Golden Trout Wilderness Area. Day hikes, horseback rides, fishing, mountaineering routes are plentiful.

However, bears and marmots are a problem here. Store food in the steel bear boxes provided. Marmots will eat radiator hoses and chew wiring inside your vehicle. Bring a roll of chicken wire to wrap your automobile, if you plan to leave it unattended for any amount of time.

Additionally, evening ranger programs are presented in summer months.
