It wasn’t long before I figured out why some of the maps showed the road going through and some of the maps show it ending, so I turned around and went back the same way I had come in.
I decided to head through O’Neals Meadow on the way back, taking a left at 6S62, then a right on I soon reached an area that I thought was probably the old road that went into the upper part of O’Neals Meadow. There was no sign on the road but I believe at one time it went through and the other end has a sign with 5S63A. There are so many big, down trees on this road on the north side of O’Neals Meadow, I would say that section is pretty much blocked. But I did it last year and where there is a will there is a way on foot.

Let your imagination go wild. You have been riding on a dusty, bumpy, hot stagecoach all day from Mariposa. Or perhaps the day is freezing cold and you are bundled up the best you can in that stagecoach with your coat and some quilts. You are approaching Cold Spring Stage Stop and sure are looking forward to the break. You will most certainly stretch your legs while the stage changes out the stock, maybe get a cold drink of water, a hot meal or spend the night before traveling on to visit those Giant Sequoias that you have heard so much about.
