Scope and Content

A map of the Bourland/Reynolds creek area. showing railroad right-of-way and camp locations; this map is not color-coded but the legend suggests it is a copy of an original that was color-coded (which apparently showed which sections were logged, unlogged and which lands belonged to federal govt. The map depicts a wagon road to Clavey's house in section 33 in T3N R18E. The railroad enters the map at mile post 38 from Tuolumne. The map shows mainline (Hetch Hetchy & Yosemite Valleys Railroad) constructed to mile post 49 in the Reed's Creek drainage. The Ridge spur is about a 1/2 mile long while the Reynolds spur winds through the Little Reynolds drainage and then quite some distance through Reynolds Creek. Camp 27 is on the mainline at a siding in a side drainage of Reeds Creek. Camp 30 was near a siding on the mainline in Looney Creek. The Grading Camp is located on a ridge above Reynolds Creek, just below the junction of Reynolds Creek with Lost Creek. Scale: 1 inch = 1200 feet
