1947 Map of Bear Valley

About this map

Bullion Mountains and the gold-bearing quartz veins of the Mother Lode dominate this mid-century survey of the Mariposa region. The settlement of Bear Valley serves as a central hub, appearing alongside the Bear Valley Sch and significant horticultural sites like Trabuco Gardens and Pendola Gardens. The industrial legacy of the area is carved into the slopes of Telegraph Hill and Fremont Rk, evidenced by a concentration of hard-rock workings including the Pine Tree Mine, Josephine Mine, and the Mountain King Mine (Abandoned) overlooking the Merced River.
