What is a watershed?
 
It's the land that water flows across or under on its way from streams and rivers to lakes and oceans. It's where you live, work, and play!

Did you identify this Upper Merced River Watershed view in the Spring/Summer River Reach? Bagby, once called Benton Mills, was a stop on the Yosemite Valley Railroad from Merced to El Portal between 1907 and 1945. The station and twin water tanks are now located in El Portal.
