BIG TREES,

Calaveras County, California,

First-Class Hotel Accommodations,

SPERRY & PERRY, Proprietors.

The Calaveras Group is the one known to the World as the Big Trees of

California, and the one chiefly visited by tourists. It comprises the

Mammoth and the South Park groves. The Mammoth grove contains

ninety-three of these

_Giants of the Forest_,

among which are the

MOTHER OF THE FOREST, the bark from which was exhibited in the

Crystal Palace, London; the

FATHER OF THE FOREST, through whose prostrate trunk thousands

have ridden on horseback; and the

ORIGINAL BIG TREE, the stump of which forms the floor of the

famous Pavilion, thirty-two feet in diameter.

The South Park grove, six miles distant, has thirteen hundred and

eighty of these trees, many of them of immense size. One, still

standing and growing, has the inner portion at the base burned out,

making a room large enough to contain sixteen men on horseback at the

same time; and yet, enough of the outer rim of the tree is left to

support the colossal proportions above.

The Calaveras Group surpasses all others in the grandeur and beauty of

its trees, and is the only one having hotel accommodations.

Tourists leaving Stockton will take the cars of the Copperopolis

railroad at 9 o'clock, A.M., to Milton, twenty-eight miles, connecting

with a daily line of Concord coaches via Winthrop's, for the Big

Trees, making the entire distance in ten hours. At Murphy's, stages

leave daily for Yosemite Valley per Hutching's new route, being the

shortest and best to Yosemite Valley. A daily line of coaches leave

Galt for the Big Trees. At Melton, and Murphy's, private conveyances

can be obtained for the Big Trees and Yosemite Valley, at low rates.

This fine new Hotel is the first which the tourist reaches on entering

of Cathedral Rock, about three miles from the entrance to the Valley.

The main building is two stories in height, roomy, new and clean,

plenty of pleasant, airy bedrooms. Table supplied with fresh mountain

trout in abundance, in addition to fresh butter, milk, eggs, fruit and

every other luxury of the mountains. A splendid stock of ice has been

laid in for the comfort of summer visitors--a luxury not to be had

elsewhere in the Valley. Bar well stocked with best qualities of

Wines, Liquors and Cigars.

The famous Yosemite hostess, Mrs. Leidig, has charge of the domestic

arrangements of the House, and the Proprietors, in person, give their

whole attention to the accommodation of their guests.

VIA

Mariposa and Clark's or Coulterville._

Thus a person can leave Sacramento at noon, or San Francisco at 4 p.

m. by the C. P. R. R., remain over night at the junction of the Rail

and Stage roads, the second night at White & Hatch's and arrive in the

Valley of the Yosemite the next evening; or those who prefer can

remain that night at Clark's and ride leisurely into the Valley early

the next day. The latter course might be preferable to the majority of

tourists, who would desire to visit en route the Mariposa Grove of Big

Trees, which is but five miles from Clark's. The trail from Clark's

leads through Alder Creek, Empire Camp, Sentinel Dome, Glacier Point,

and the far-famed "Inspiration Point." From the latter is obtained the

first grand view of this wonderful Valley, lying four thousand feet

below the "Point."
