A colorful map of the park and area with considerable detail. This is the later house version that adds the location of the Big Tree (Mariposa Grove) Grant at the extreme southern end of the park. A legend provides an explanation of the color code, which shows the limits of the park as established in 1890 by Congress, the newly (Feb. 7, 1905) recommended Park boundary, existing and suggested trails and roads. Also depicts the patrol stations and sub-stations, and a permanent military post as recommended by the Yosemite Park Commission the previous year. On a scale of 2 miles to the inch.
