USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Coloma and the banks of the South Fork American River anchor this late 1940s landscape, centered on the historic birthplace of the California Gold Rush. The map highlights the Gold Discovery Site State Historical Monument and the James W. Marshall Monument, marking where the discovery changed the American West. Beyond the riverside, the Georgetown Divide is dense with evidence of extensive mining operations, from the Spanish Dry Diggings to the Georgia Slide (Site).
