1949 Map of Georgetown
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Georgetown serves as the focal point of this Gold Country landscape, situated along the Georgetown Divide between deep river canyons. The map documents an area deeply marked by its mining history, featuring numerous named prospects such as the Beebe Mine, Josephine Mine, and the Green Mine. Along the steep banks of the Middle Fork American River, historic locations like African Bar (Site) and Fords Bar reflect the early river-mining era, while the Georgia Slide (Site) and Red Diggings point to the intensive hydraulic and lode operations that shaped the terrain.
