2012 Map of Mokelumne Hill

About this map

Mokelumne Hill serves as a central anchor for this part of the Sierra Nevada foothills, where the landscape is defined by deep gulches and the winding courses of the Mokelumne River and the N Fork Calaveras River. The settlement pattern reflects long-standing agricultural and mining legacies, evident in named locations such as Guffra Ranch, McSorley Ranch, and Lombardi Ranch. A sophisticated network of water management features, including the Amador Canal, the Calaveras Public Utility Ditch, and Lake Tabeaud, highlights the region's historical reliance on diverted water for local industry and utilities.
