==About==
==About==


The community of Big Oak Flat was founded by James D. Savage, who began mining the area about 1851. In "Discovery of the Yosemite and the Indian War of 1851 which led to that event" by Lafayette Bunnell, Savage is credited as the leader of the first group of non-Native Americans of European ancestry into [[Yosemite National Park|Yosemite]] Valley, on March 27, 1851. Others of European ancestry may have seen the valley as early as 1833. From approximately 1916 to 1924, Big Oak Flat served as a staging area and housing location for workers constructing the [[Hetch Hetchy Railroad]] which was required to build the [[Hetch Hetchy|O'Shaughnessy Dam]] on the [[Tuolumne River]] in the [[Hetch Hetchy Valley]]. Big Oak Flat is now registered as [[California Historical Landmark]] #406.

The Pine Mountain Lake Subdivision was developed by Boise Cascade in the late 1960s with about 3,600 homesites averaging about one third to one half of an acre each. PML offers an equestrian center (homesites near the center are larger, about 1 to {{convert|2|acre|m2}} and allow your own horse), tennis, a PGA rated golf course with a full time [[Golf pro|Golf Pro]], "Country Club" and full time mobile security patrol. The Lake is about 2,500–2,550 feet above mean sea level. The highest points in the community are about {{convert|3100|ft|m}} AMSL. Altitudes range from about 2,600 to {{convert|3100|ft|m|abbr=on}}. It's above the fog and below the snow line. Temps range from the 20–30&nbsp;°F in winter to 80–90&nbsp;°F in the summer. Snow in the winter usually is light, and while the streets are plowed, you will not likely need to shovel your driveway. Land line phone service is available with high speed internet in most areas. Cell phones have a little trouble is this area. US postal service offers P.O. boxes in Downtown Groveland and delivery to Pine Mountain Lake's many neighborhood lock box centers within the gated community. [[United Parcel Service|UPS]] and [[FedEx]] delivery is very good. Furniture deliveries and other tradesmen need the owners to call in a pass for them at the Main Security Gate to gain entrance. Nobody gets in without a pass or an owner's card.

About

[edit]

The community of Big Oak Flat was founded by James D. Savage, who began mining the area about 1851. In "Discovery of the Yosemite and the Indian War of 1851 which led to that event" by Lafayette Bunnell, Savage is credited as the leader of the first group of non-Native Americans of European ancestry into Yosemite Valley, on March 27, 1851. Others of European ancestry may have seen the valley as early as 1833. From approximately 1916 to 1924, Big Oak Flat served as a staging area and housing location for workers constructing the Hetch Hetchy Railroad which was required to build the O'Shaughnessy Dam on the Tuolumne River in the Hetch Hetchy Valley. Big Oak Flat is now registered as California Historical Landmark #406.

The lake is spring-fed and is also fed by Big Creek. It has 210 acres (0.8 km2) of water and 6 miles (10 km) of shoreline. It affords water skiing, sailing, swimming and fishing. It has three sandy swim beaches, a boat launch marina and a fisherman's park. Pine Mountain Lake Association stocks the lake with trout. The lake is surrounded by pines and manzanitas, and most homes cannot be seen from the lake, preserving its wilderness feeling.

The Pine Mountain Lake subdivision was developed by Boise Cascade in the late 1960s with about 3,600 homesites averaging about one third to one half of an acre each. PML offers an equestrian center, tennis, a PGA rated golf course with a full-time golf pro, a "country club," and full-time mobile security patrol. The lake is about 2,546 feet (776 m) feet above mean sea level. The highest points in the community are about 3,100 feet (940 m) AMSL. Altitudes range from about 2,600 to 3,100 ft (940 m). Temperatures range from the 20–30 °F in winter to 80–90 °F in the summer.
