1979 Map of Devils Nose

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The North Fork Mokelumne River carves a deep path through this Sierra Nevada landscape, serving as the boundary between Amador and Calaveras counties. By the late 1970s, the region was defined by a complex network of hydroelectric infrastructure, including the Tiger Creek Powerhouse, Tiger Creek Forbay, and the Tiger Creek Regulator Res. A system of conduits, siphons, and an aqueduct moves water across high ridges like Doaks Ridge and Cooks Station Ridge. Away from the river, the terrain rises into the Eldorado and Stanislaus national forests, where old logging or service routes like Winton Road and various jeep trails navigate the slopes of Bald Mountain and Devils Nose. Notable clearings and flats such as Whitmore Meadow and Hunter Flat provide distinct landmarks within the dense forest cover.
