The “City of Angels” is the only incorporated town in Calaveras County. It has a charming main street full of intriguing little shops and cafe restaurants, a farmers market in the summer and a vintage movie theatre. Inset into the sidewalk are the names of frogs who have jumped the furthest in the annual Jumping Frog Jubilee. Names like “Rosie the Ribeter” who set the current world’s record, at over 21 feet in 1986. The people know how to laugh, and are very friendly with tourists.
