This attractive topographical map shows the entire park in great detail at a scale of 2 miles per inch. A legend at right identifies park limits (green), roads, trails, boundaries, contours, springs, marshes, glaciers, and more. The 7.5-mile long Yosemite Valley is located in the lower third of the image and locates Cathedral Rocks, Half Dome, Yosemite Falls, El Capitan, and more. Topography is finely rendered with contour intervals at 100 feet. This is 1929 edition, reprinted in 1932, with roads and trails added by the National Park Service in 1928.
