Winter Driving Highway 120 is open year round to Yosemite National Park and into the Valley. Tioga Pass over the Sierra is closed for the winter and opens around the first of June. Highways 4 and 108 are closed over the Sierra after the first major snowfall but are kept plowed to Bear Valley and Dodge Ridge Wintersports Areas. Sonora Pass and Ebbetts Pass usually reopen in mid-May. It is always advisable to carry chains in the mountains during the winter. Snow rarely falls as low as Sonora.

What’s in a Name? IT’S COMMON for a new city or town to be named for a

distinguished individual. Tuolumne County is not without its examples of such honorees. Jamestown is named for Colonel George E. James, a San Francisco attorney turned successful prospector who first won and then lost the respect of the community which bore his name. Soulsbyville was the first town in the county whose founding was based on the operation of a lode mine. Its name honors Ben Soulsby, an English miner who made the gold discovery which lead to the mine’s operation. In 1856, Summersville was named for Elizabeth Summers, a widow who opened a boarding house for miners. After the 1888 discovery of gold nearby, Charles H. Carter’s general store became the focus of the town, so the town name was changed to Carters. Then in 1909, when the Sierra Railroad completed its line into what had been called Tuolumne Station, Summersville underwent its final name change to Tuolumne. More recently in 1925, the owners of the site for Twain Harte combined the last names of their favorite two Mother Lode authors to form the town’s name. It honored Mark Twain and Bret Harte, men who knew each other as former San Francisco journalists but who made their separate ways to the Mother Lode with each eventually striking literary pay dirt with nationally acclaimed stories inspired by what they heard, saw and did while living in the area.

Me-Wuk Culture IN THE LANGUAGE OF THE Me-Wuk Native American Indians, Tuolumne (pronounced tooall-ah-me) translates from the Me-Wuk language meaning “rushing river”. The Tuolumne Band of Me-Wuk’s Rancheria is located eight miles east of Sonora. Special public events take place at the Rancheria, the biggest of which is the annual Acorn Festival featuring the making of traditional Nupa (acorn soup), ceremonial dancing, hand games, native crafts, other traditions and food. This Festival is held each September and celebrates the annual harvest of the black oak acorns, a traditional staple of the Me-Wuk. The Tuolumne Band of Me-Wuk Indians has been a staunch supporter of education, athletics, and non-profit efforts in Tuolumne County. The Tribe owns and operates Black Oak Casino and Family Fun Center and the Tuolumne Me-Wuk Health Clinic.

THE STREAM, on the lake shore, from a boat or even at a trout farm - your choice from the advanced art of fly fishing at a remote stream to learning to bait a hook at the Springfield Trout Farm. Tuolumne County has it all! Try the waters of Don Pedro, Lake Tulloch or New Melones for bass or Kokanee salmon or one of the high country lakes and streams for trout. The Stanislaus National Forest alone offers 811 miles of rivers and streams with 18 species of fish. Equipment and horseback guides are available for that fishing trek into the Emigrant Wilderness, or enjoy the solitude of fly fishing on a remote mountain stream surrounded by the beauty of the forest. A local guide can teach beginners and organize your dream fishing trip.

Columbia State Historic Park

Step Back into History

Traces of the colorful past are all around -- the piled rock walls, the brick and stone buildings, the Victorian homes, one-room houses, historic inns inns, saloons room school houses and churches, the sagging barns and old-fashioned farm houses, the many remnants of mines and mills.

Columbia State Historic Park is known as the best preserved Gold Rush town in California -- a place where you don’t just view California history, you experience it. Your senses will tell you you’ve come to a special place:

Even the street and place names that dot Highway 49, Highway 120 and Highway 108 reect those days when the world rushed in –names like Chinese Camp, French Flat, Mormon Creek, Rough and Ready, Poverty Hill, Jackass Hill and Six Bit Gulch.

Hear the clang of hammer on anvil at the blacksmith’s shop. The strum of a banjo from a sidewalk musician. The clatter of a stagecoach down main street.

These authentic reminders of tumultuous times create the kind of living heritage that can’t be manufactured in any theme park or tourist center.

Smell new candles and soap at the candle shop, fresh wood shavings at the carpentry shop, handmade chocolates and licorice at the candy kitchen.

It’s easy here to let your mind wander back to the days when rowdy miners, then ranchers, loggers and frontier families swept in and transformed these rolling hills and spectacular mountains from the

TOS BLUE WORLD PHO

Try your hand panning for gold. Takee a trail ride or climb aboard a stagecoach. Sample a hot pretzel or a cold sarsaparilla at an 1850s saloon. Take in an afternoon melodrama or a full-stage production at the restored Fallon House Theatre. See the house where actress Grace Kelly stayed during the ďŹ lming of High Noon. Knowledgeable docents staff the park museum, all dressed circa 1850-1870. The town also hosts many special events that bring the era to life, including candlelight processions at Christmas time, old-fashioned Easter Parade and Fourth of July celebrations, a fall “Fiddle and Banjo Contest,â€? and much more. Admission is always free, and the surrounding area includes restaurants, motels, campgrounds and RV parks and Columbia Airport. For information, call the park ofďŹ ce at 588-9128 or visit www.columbiacalifornia.com.

The transformation started with a jolt, when the ďŹ rst gold nugget was discovered in Woods Creek near Jamestown in July of 1848 and California’s Gold Rush instantly spread south. By some accounts, the county’s emigrant population swelled to nearly 20,000 within two years, only to drop again drastically as the hunt for gold subsided.

The “Southern Minesâ€? of Tuolumne County hit their second hey day beginning in 1897, when the Sierra Railway completed its tracks to Jamestown, continuing on to Sonora and ďŹ nally reaching Tuolumne City in 1900. With the coming of steam trains, boom times followed for the lumber, hard rock mining and cattle industries. In later years, the railroad was instrumental in constructing the dams that created Lake Tulloch, Don Pedro and Hetch Hetchy Reservoirs.

That ďŹ rst boom was followed by others. A second Gold Rush started in the late 1800s as hard rock and hydraulic mining struck spectacular payloads; logging and ranching hit their peaks, and construction of the railroads, early toll roads and major hydroelectric systems brought in new waves of workers and their families. Two state historic parks and museums in Sonora, Columbia, Tuolumne, Jamestown and Groveland showcase these fascinating times. They come to life as well as you simply drive through the countryside and stroll the well-preserved business districts of the county’s rural communities. See page 44 for a listing of local museums.

MUSEUM

Railtown 1897 State Historic Park in Jamestown brings this era to life today. The complex of buildings was built as the headquarters of the Sierra Railway, a short line that still serves the area. The 26-acre Park is open daily for tours featuring the Roundhouse complex – one of the last of its kind in North America. As part of your tour you’ll see a belt-driven machine shop that remains fully functional today, historic locomotives and fu passenger cars, and movie “props� like p smoke-stacks, headlights and station signs. sm

COLUMBIA STATE HISTORIC PARK

GO LD! THERE’S STILL GOLD in the Central Sierra’s ore-laden foothills – lots of it, mining experts say – and it’s just waiting to be found. The gold seekers of ’49 and the prospectors who followed them extracted only 30% of the Mother Lode’s riches. The math is simple: 70% remains to be found! That’s why prospecting has become a popular year-round outdoor sport in Tuolumne County. An authentic Mother Lode adventure for all ages, it requires no special skills or expensive equipment in order to get started. It’s easy, fun, potentially rewarding and an ideal family activity. Basic prospecting information and beginner gold panning lessons are available at Columbia State Historic Park and specialty businesses in Jamestown and elsewhere in Tuolumne County where guided prospecting trips may be arranged.

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!

TUOLUMNE COUNTY IS MORE than just one of the historic regions which gave California its “Golden State” nickname. As early as 1919, film makers recognized the area as a valuable and convenient source of locations rich in diverse natural features and vintage architectural styles. Too, they also discovered that here they could duplicate almost any type yp of sceneryy in the United States and often beyond. Among the hundreds of movies and TV programs filmed here are: High Noon (Grace Kelly and Gary Cooper), Little House on the Prairie, Bonanza and Highway to Heaven (Michael Landon), The Red Pony (Henry Fonda and Maureen O’Hara), The Great Race (Jack Lemmon), The Big Valley (Barbara Stanwyck), ), Lassie (June Lockhart), Rawhide and Unforgiven (Clint Eastwood)) and Back to the Future III (Michael ael J.

Tuolumne County inspires traditional and contemporary art styles.

THE NATURAL

SANDY GORDON

BEAUTY of Tuolumne County is reflected in its arts, which are thriving as the area’s reputation as an exciting arts destination grows. With scenery as striking as the Mother Lode to draw on, it’s no wonder Tuolumne County attracts a wealth of wonderful visual artists and artisans. The Central Sierra Arts Council houses two Galleries in their downtown arts space, The George Post Gallery for exhibitions such as the annual InFocus Competition, and the Ventana Gallery, a fine art collective for local artists.

Several local art associations including the Sierra Professional Artists, the Mother Lode Art Association, the Sierra Quilt Guild, the Mother Lode Spinners, Sierra Needle Artists and the Yosemite Artists Guild all hold regular meetings with demonstrations by guest artists and annual art shows. Many visual artists also offer private lessons and tours in their studios. Visitors interested in touring artists’ studios should inquire about the annual Art Trails Studio Tour. From Bach to bluegrass, Dixieland to jazz, Celtic, rock and country, music lovers of all ages can find something to their liking or sample something new nearly every weekend of the year. Events include established favorites such as the Strawberry Music Festival near Yosemite National Park, the Sonora Blues Festival and the Bach Festival in Sonora and the St. James Concert Series in the historic Red Church. The county also boasts a local Symphony of the Sierra, a brass and reed band, an outstanding jazz festival series held during the school year at Columbia College and the annual Bear Valley Music Festival. Each summer, the U.S. Forest Service presents concerts and dramatic performances at various venues in the county, including the amphitheater at Pinecrest Lake. Tuolumne City, Sonora and Twain Harte offer summer concert series in lovely outdoor settings. The Central Sierra Arts Council serves as the clearing-house for the arts and artists of the Mother Lode. With a variety of special events, shows, performances and educational programs, its Arts Center at 48 South Washington Street in downtown Sonora is a focal point of community activity. There you can make connections to the cultural tourism and the local arts scene in the foothills.Visit the Arts Center, www.centralsierraarts.org or call 532-ARTS! w w w. T C V B . c o m
