This Forest Service map was based on the old 15 minute quad topos with a scale of 1 inch equals 1 mile and 80 foot contours. It is on two large sheets (off hand, I'd say about 4 x 5 feet), with one sheet printed on both sides, and covers all the high sierra from Devils Postpile down to south of Sequoia Park. If you had two sets (so you could get both sides of the two sided sheet) you could cover a very large wall!
