I doubt the claim. There is no way to know who visited the (proximate) area prior to 1857. Since the USA only took possession from Mexico 9 years previously, is it even certain that no official (Mexican) records exist of visits pre-1857? Even if not, all that can be said it that the first (known) "documented" visit by "non-natives" was in 1857. Also, given that Tuolumne country was sometimes referred to (ca. 1850) as Oro County (oro is Spanish for gold -- take a look at the gold found there (wikipedia Tuolumne County) and given the 1848 Gold Rush, the idea that adventurers didn't investigate the rivers in the area is unlikely, imho. (even granted that the "Rush" was mostly in Northern California.)98.21.223.201 (talk) 02:22, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
