They, however, only observed the Sierra Nevada mountains. None entered the high terrain where the giant Sequoia exist. Only one explorer came close to the Sierra Nevadas. In 1806 Ensign Gabriel Moraga, venturing into the foothills, crossed and named the Rio de la Santos Reyes (River of the Holy Kings) or Kings River. Americans in the San Joaquin Valley The first band of Americans entered the Valley in 1827 when Jedediah Smith and a group of fur traders traversed it from south to north. This journey ushered in the first American frontier as fifteen years of fur trapping followed. Still, none of these men reported sighting the giant trees. It was not until 1833 that members of the Joseph R. 1lalker expedition crossed the Sierra Nevadas and received credit as the first whites to See the Sequoia trees. These trees are presumed to form part of either the present M"rced or Tuolwnregroves. Others did not learn of their find since Walker's group failed to report their discovery.

  • Birds of the Kings Canyon National Park Area of California
    THE CONDOR VOLUME 45 NOVEMBER-DECEMBER, 1943 NUMBER 6 BIRDS OF THE KINGS CANYON NATIONAL PARK AREA OF CALIFORNIA By JOSEPH S. DIXON The present check-list of birds and a companion list of mammals of Kings Canyon National Park represent the combined efforts of several naturalists and trained observ- ers whose field work in this area has extended from 1916 to 1942. In this quarter of a century the following institutions and individuals have participated importantly in this work by collecting specimens. In the summer of 1916 the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology of the University of California organized and sent an expedition to study the wildlife of the Kings Canyon area. The typical trans-Sierran section chosen extended westward from Kearsarge Pass on the extreme crest of the Sierra, which is now the eastern boundary of the Park, down by Bullfrog and Charlotte lakes and Bubbs Creek to the main south fork of Kings River where studies were made at Kanawyers, Zumwalt Meadow, Roaring River and Cedar Grove. Later in the fall, field work was continued westward at Horse Corral and Summit meadows, Hume, General Grant Grove, and Dunlap, and thence down to Minkler where the Kings River widens out as it enters the San Joaquin Valley. Study of the Owens Valley portion of this section was completed later. This initial work was carried on for the University by H. S. Swarth, Joseph S. Dixon and H. G. White who recorded their findings in 230 pages of field notes and 119 photo- graphs. In addition to this they collected and preserved as study specimens 382 birds, 556 mammals, 334 reptiles and 49 amphibians.
