About this map

Merced River flows through the northern reaches of this Sierra Nevada landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the Briceburg settlement. The post-war era infrastructure is anchored by the Yosemite All-Year Highway, which snakes through the steep terrain to connect local outposts like Summit Inn, Timber Lodge, and Midpines. This survey captures a transitional period in the local economy, where industrial gold mining legacies are still evident at the King Solomon Mine, Feliciana Mine, and Colorado Mine, yet the presence of the Mariposa Ranger Station and the Sierra National Forest boundary reflects the growing importance of federal land management and tourism. Rural life is further mapped through isolated educational landmarks such as Colorado Sch and Bear Creek Sch, and high points like Feliciana Mtn that command the drainage basins of Bear Creek and Sherlock Creek.
