About this map

The Feather River and its tributaries dominate this late-nineteenth-century landscape, highlighting an era of intense resource extraction and early mountain settlement. Bidwell Bar serves as a primary geographic anchor near the river's forks, surrounded by a network of mining operations and mills such as Snows Mine and the Old Reliance Mill. The terrain is characterized by steep ridges and high flats like Walker Plain and the Gravel Range, where isolated outposts like Merrimac and Junction House provided essential stops for travelers moving through the Plumas region.
