1943 Map of Emerald Mtn

About this map

The high sierra of the Sequoia National Forest in Kern County defines this 1940s landscape, where mining operations and isolated ranching outposts are scattered across the mountainous terrain. The old mining town of Claraville sits at the head of French Gulch, supported by several nearby workings including the Gwynne Mine and St John Mine. The map details a rugged economy of remote cattle ranches and family-named landmarks like Benner Ranch, Cannon Ranch, and the Casa de los Cerritos.
