1947 Map of Browns Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Gold-dredging scars and the complex hydraulic history of the Yuba River define this landscape northeast of Marysville. Large-scale tailing deposits dominate the river corridor between Daguerre Point and Hammonton, revealing the intensive environmental transformation of the region during the mining era. To the north, the hills above Browns Valley are dotted with legacy operations like the Donnebroge Mine and Pennsylvania Mine, while the Browns Valley Ridge provides a natural barrier between the river valley and the northern ranch lands.
