About this map

Industrial and hydraulic engineering define the landscape along the Merced River in this mid-century survey. The settlement at Merced Falls serves as a focal point for water management, featuring the Merced Falls Diversion Dam, a powerhouse, and a substation. Extensive Dredge Tailings along the river banks below the falls reveal the intensive gold dredging history of the region.
