Welcome to Coulterville!
Coulterville has a new sign saying 'Welcome to Coulterville'
that is positioned looking South on Highway 49 North.
A great looking design on the sign giving it that 'Old West' feel.
Coulterville was home to many of the original 49'ers who came West looking for gold. Maxwell Creek located close to this sign was a wealthy source of placer gold. Just to the North of town is the famous Penon Blanco Mine with it's outcropping of Quartz viewable from many miles away and was a landmark the miners looked for as they walked from Stockton or Sonora to Coulterville, California.
