Springtime in Mariposa County!
Out on Bear Valley Road the rolling lower elevation foothills are still springtime green but a few brown painted patches can be seen here and there. In the far distance of the photo the Central Valley (Eastside of the Merced area) can be seen.
Back in the gold days many a gold miner tramped over this
area as they searched the streams and arroyos for gold, but eventually this area became known for hard rock mining
and much gold was taken from the Hornitos area
of Mariposa County.
To learn more about this area as it was back in the gold days:
Hornitos
