1949 Map of Chicago Park
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Gold-country legacy and hydroelectric development define this landscape along the Nevada Co Placer Co border. While the Southern Pacific railroad follows the high ground through Magra and past the Secret Town (Site), the rugged canyons below reveal a deep history of hydraulic mining. Extensive Placer Diggings and the scarred terrain of Red Dog Canyon and Chalk Bluff mark the era of massive earth-moving, centered around the aptly named settlement of You Bet.
