Old Yosemite Road is a short, bypassed portion of the original Yosemite Stage Road located north of Oakhurst.  The corridor was developed in the 1850s and would be incorporated into the Washburn Brothers Yosemite Stage Road in 1882.  The Yosemite Stage would be realigned towards Raymond in 1886 and the original highway towards Fresno Flats (now Oakhurst) would be repurposed as part of the Fresno-Yosemite Road.  Bissett's Station would operate along the Fresno-Yosemite Road from 1908 through 1934 when modern California State Route 41 was constructed.  Old Yosemite Road no longer is accessible as a through highway but once connected to Madera County Road 425A and Sierra National Forest Road 6S15.
