About this map

The confluence of the North Fork American River and the Middle Fork American River defines this rugged section of the Sierra Nevada foothills, where mining legacy and agricultural pockets intersect. Significant gold-mining sites such as the Grit Mine, Bowman Mine, and the Shenanigan Mine are scattered across the landscape, particularly near the settlement of Spanish Dry Diggings. The terrain is characterized by steep canyons like Maine Bar Canyon and prominent ridges such as the Georgetown Divide.
