About this map

The gold mining heritage of the Mormon Basin and the Burnt River valley is clearly visible in this mid-1960s topographic record. High-altitude mining sites including the Humboldt Mine and Rainbow Mine sit nestled near California Mountain, while the valley floors are marked by extensive dredge tailings along the Burnt River. Local history is preserved through labels for the early settlements of Malheur City, Clarksville, and Eldorado, alongside the smaller communities of China Town and Amelia. The terrain transitions from the high peaks of Pedro Mountain down to the arid stretches of Cow Valley and the Malheur Reservoir, which was recorded at its 1960 elevation. This map documents a landscape defined by its mineral wealth, from the Monohon Tunnel to the various gulches named after early settlers like George Henry Gulch and August Meyer Gulch.
