USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The Yosemite All-Year Highway snakes through the northern hills of this Sierra Nevada foothills region, connecting the seat at Mariposa to the high country beyond. This era of the late 1940s shows a landscape defined by small cattle-ranching communities and the legacy of Gold Rush mining. While the town of Mariposa serves as a central hub with its County Fairgrounds, the surrounding terrain is dotted with isolated community centers and one-room schools like Sebastopol School, Ben Hur Sch, and Oakvale School.
