About this map

American House and its namesake ravine anchor the southeastern corner of this 1950 survey, marking a historic junction where the Plumas Co Sierra Co line meets the ridge country. This high-elevation landscape within the Plumas National Forest is defined by a network of steep drainage basins and prominent ridges, including the extensive Mooreville Ridge. The map documents a period of transition for local industry, noting several inactive mining sites such as the Sanborn Mine and Browns Hill Mine, alongside evidence of established ranching at the Boehme Ranch and McIntosh Ranch.
