About this map

Placer Co Grove Sierra Redwoods and the deep drainage of the Middle Fork American River define this mid-century landscape in the High Sierra. This region, primarily within the Tahoe National Forest, reveals the remnants of a prolific mining era, evidenced by the high density of named claims. Clusters of activity are visible near Star Town (Site), where the Star Town Mine and Root Hog Mine once operated, and along the steep banks of Duncan Canyon.
