This gorgeous wilderness basin covers from Piute Pass on the east to the South Fork of the San Joaquin River on the west. The northern boundary is marked by Piute Creek. The Goddard Divide forms the dividing line between North and South Evolution Basin. The Goddard Divide runs from Mt. Goddard to Mt. Wallace in the east. This is one of the wildest areas of the Sierra Nevada with a large part of the area unmarred by trails. |
