1888 Map of Bidwell Bar

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Bidwell Bar and the surrounding gold-country landscape are captured here during the late nineteenth century as the region transitioned from early pioneer mining into established timber and ranching operations. The terrain is dominated by the deep canyons of the North Fork Feather River, Middle Fork Feather River, and South Fork Feather River, which dictated the location of early settlements and transit points. Numerous family-named homesteads and early post offices like Lasslys, Mooretown, and Strawberry Valley are scattered across the ridges, providing a detailed record of late-1880s residency in Butte and Plumas counties.
