Acquisition Information Finding Aid to the Sierra Club BANC MSS 71/293 c 2 Mountain Registers and Records, 1860-2015 In 1970 the Board of Directors of the Sierra Club voted to place the club's historical records in The Bancroft Library. Included in the first donation were summit registers and committee records of historical value. Registers continue to be added to the collection by club members and other individuals as they are filled and replaced. Accruals Future additions are expected. Processing Information Processed by Lauren Lassleben, Project Archivist, and Xiuzhi Zhou, Project Assistant in 1992; Additions by Charis Baz Takaro in 1998, and by Alison E. Bridger from 2004-2007. Additions are processed by Bancroft Library staff as they are accessioned. Organizational History The Mountaineering Committee was formed in 1932 with Francis P. Farquhar as its chairman. Initially it planned to compile and index a list of early ascents and summit records of the Sierra Nevada. Later the Committee was also engaged in documenting mountain register records and adding historical notations to climbing routes. For more information on missing registers see: Kirby, Mark. "Paper Chase: Who's Stealing the Sierra's Historic Summit Registers?" National Geographic Adventure Magazine Feb. 2005. Scope and Content of Collection The Sierra Club Mountain Registers and Records contains the Sierra Club Mountaineering Committee records, artifacts including register containers, and mountain registers mainly from California summits of the Sierra Nevada. This collection contains three series: Mountaineering Committee Records, Artifacts, and Mountain Registers, covering a period of over one century. The committee records reflect the scope of its activity, the policy it set for record keeping, and vivid descriptions of the summits, the trails, and ascents to the peaks. The second series contains a variety of artifacts, principally a sampling of register containers and related items retained for exhibit purposes. The third series contains mountain registers, mainly from California summits of the Sierra Nevada, with a few from other states and foreign countries. Many registers have weathered snow and rain and are extremely fragile.

From left to right: James T. Gardiner, Richard D. Cotter, William H. Brewer, and Clarence King. INTRODUCTION This field trip guide includes road logs for the three principal roadways on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada that are adjacent to, or pass through, parts of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (Figs. 1,2, 3). The roads include State Route 180 from Fresno to Cedar Grove in Kings Canyon Park (the Kings Canyon Highway), State Route 198 from Visalia to Sequoia Park ending near Grant Grove (the Generals Highway) and the Mineral King road (county route 375) from State Route 198 near Three Rivers to Mineral King. These roads provide a good overview of this part of the Sierra Nevada which lies in the middle of a 250 km span over which no roads completely cross the range. The Kings Canyon highway penetrates about three-quarters of the distance across the range and the State Route 198~Mineral King road traverses about one-half the distance (Figs.
