The construction date and builder are not stated in the available document.","why_significant":"The nomination form is missing from this entry, so the reasons for significance are not stated. Only a topographic map and a locator card survive, and neither explains why the cabin was listed.","narrative":"McCauley Cabin is a building listed on the National Register in 1977 and located in Yosemite National Park, in Tuolumne County, California. The surviving file for this entry contains no nomination text. What remains is a USGS topographic map of the Tuolumne Meadows quadrangle, which marks the cabin's position in the park with a UTM reference of zone 11, 291839 east, 4194700 north, and a locator card noting that the nomination and photographs are missing. Because of this, the construction date, builder, architectural character, current condition and the specific reasons the cabin was considered historically significant cannot be described from the available material. The map places it in high country near Tuolumne Meadows, south of Tioga Pass and close to Polly Dome and Budd Lake. Any further account of its history would need the original nomination documentation.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":null,"vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:31.40197-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/77000359.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/77000359/ac6320bc77-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/77000359/ac6320bc77-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Gowittylb","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:134.McCauleyCabin.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Gowittylb</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:134.McCauleyCabin.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123862284","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q89916101"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/tuolumne-county/mccauley-cabin-77000359/"}
