1994 Map of La Porte
USGS Topo · Published 1998About this map
Gold-bearing ravines and high ridges define this landscape where the boundaries of Plumas Co Sierra Co meet. The area’s hydraulic and placer mining legacy is visible through a complex network of ditches and remnants like the Pioneer Mine Placer Diggings and the Thistle Shaft (Site). Settlements such as Gibsonville and Howland Flat occupy the high ground between deep drainages like Canyon Creek and Slate Creek, reflecting a settlement pattern dictated by the geology of the Mother Lode's northern reaches.
