2018 Map of Mokelumne Hill

About this map

Mokelumne Hill serves as the central hub of this survey, where the historic Mother Lode terrain of Amador and Calaveras counties meets. The landscape is defined by the deep incision of the Mokelumne River, which separates the two counties and anchors a network of industrial water systems including the Amador Canal, Upper Standard Canal, and the Calaveras Public Utility Ditch. These features point to a long history of water management for mining and local utilities that shaped the development of settlements like Electra and Big Bar.
