	Agua Fria (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		It’s difficult to imagine what Agua Fria must have looked like during its peak, when a dozen stores, numerous monte and faro banks, a billiard room, bowling alley, and hotel provided for the needs of the hundreds of miners who once swarmed over the land in their search for gold.
		Discovered by Sonoran miners in the early summer of 1849, Agua Fria was one of the earliest settlements on Frémont’s Las Mariposas grant.
		As the miners drifted off to other camps, Agua Fria’s importance dwindled, and in 1852 the county seat was moved to Mariposa as the result of a county-wide vote, after a mandate by the State Legislature required all county seats to be determined by the registered voters of that county.
