About this map

Hurleton and Wyandotte anchor the northern reaches of this Sierra Nevada foothill landscape, where the gold-rush era's hydraulic and hard-rock legacies are etched into the topography. The drainage of North Honcut Creek and its many tributaries, such as Irish Ravine and Fine Gold Gulch, define the region's complex water management system. Evidence of early infrastructure includes a siphon and flume networks designed to move water across the uneven terrain of Cleveland Hill and Swedes Flat.
