About this map

The W Fork Chowchilla River, Middle Fork Chowchilla River, and E Fork Chowchilla River converge in this high-elevation terrain of Mariposa County, forming a complex watershed punctuated by prominent peaks. The settlement at Elliott Corner serves as a central point for a network of winding mountain roads, including Snow Creek Rd and Darrah Rd, which navigate the steep drainage basins of Owl Cr and Italian Cr.

The landscape is defined by its numerous named summits, from the central Stumpfield Mountain to the outlying Wildcat Mountain, Paloni Mountain, and Butler Mountain. Distinctive topographic features like Nelson Cove and Metcalf Gap suggest a geography shaped by heavy erosion and high-relief drainage. This 2012 survey illustrates a modern mountain environment where historical property and road names like Usona Rd and Triangle Rd persist alongside the established watercourses of the Sierra Nevada foothills.
