1952 Map of Michigan Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Michigan Bluff sits high above the deep canyons of the Sierra Nevada, overlooking an intense network of hydraulic and hard-rock gold mining operations. The mid-century landscape is defined by its industrial history, with dozens of active and inactive claims such as the Mountain Chief Mine, Golden Gate Mine, and Hidden Treasure Mine lining the steep ridges. The terrain is marked by significant topographical features like Chicken Hawk Ridge and Volcano Ridge, which drop sharply toward the Middle Fork American River and the North Fork American River.
