About this map

The North Fork Mokelumne River carves a deep canyon through the center of this terrain, serving as the border between Amador and Calaveras counties. During the late 1970s, the landscape was defined by complex hydroelectric infrastructure, including the Powerhouse, Tiger Creek Reservoir, and the Tiger Creek Forbay. High-elevation features like Cooks Station Ridge and Oaks Ridge dominate the northern section, while the southern portion transitions toward Bailey Ridge. The map details a network of utility management and recreation within the Eldorado National Forest and Stanislaus National Forest. Researchers can find small, localized settlements such as Hunter Flat and Boston Flat, alongside remote landmarks like Bruce Crossing and Whitmore Meadow.
