During 1908 Elick and Emma Bissett established Bissett's Station five miles north of Fresno Flats along the Fresno-Yosemite Road.  Bissett's Station housed machinery which was frequently used to haul materials to both Sugar Pine and Wawona.  The location can still be found today at the northeast corner of modern Old Yosemite Road and Madera County Road 620. 

What is now Road 620 was originally built as a trail from Bissett's Station at the Fresno-Yosemite Road west to the junction of the Mariposa Road (now Road 628) and the Wawona Stage Road (now Miami Mountain Road).  Said trail can be seen on the 1912 United States Geological Survey Map of Mariposa.
