In 1904 Congress appropriated $3,000 for a field investigation of park boundaries. The Interior Secretary appointed the Yosemite Park Commission consisting of H. M. Chittenden, Robert B. Marshall, and Frank Bond. The commission recommended a substantial reduction of the size of the park. Most of the commission's recommendations were followed when Congress passed legislation in 1905 to adjust the park's boundaries. A later map was printed showing lands eliminated and new park boundaries established by the Act of 11 June 1906. A fine copy. (#164842).
