1972 Map of Bourne

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Whitman National Forest in the early 1970s reveals a landscape defined by the industrial remnants of the gold mining era. Deep within the mountains, the town of Bourne stands at the confluence of Cracker Creek and Little Cracker Creek, surrounded by dozens of identified lode claims. This map is a critical resource for understanding the scale of extraction in the Blue Mountains, showing the complex web of jeep trails and pack trails that once connected isolated workings like the Columbia Mine and the Chloride Mine to the outside world.
