    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP MF-1416-B UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL OF THE CARSON-ICEBERG ROADLESS AREAS, CENTRAL SIERRA NEVADA, CALIFORNIA SUMMARY REPORT By William J. Keith1, Maurice A. Chaffee*, Donald Plouffl, and Michael S. Miller2 STUDIES RELATED TO WILDERNESS Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and the Joint Conference Report on Senate Bill 4, 88th Congress, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the Carson-Iceberg Roadless Areas, Stanislaus and Toiyabe National Forests, Alpine and Tuolumne Counties, California. The Carson-Iceberg was established as a wilderness study area under the Joint Conference Report on Senate Bill 4, 88th Congress. It was later classified as recommended wilderness (C4-986 and C5-986) and further planning (B5-986) during the Second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE n) by the U.S. Forest Service, January 1979.

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.
