1898 Map of Mt. Diablo

USGS Topo · Published 1901

About this map

Nortonville and Somersville stand as prominent mining centers during this late nineteenth-century survey, connected to the northern rail lines by the Empire R.R. and other coal-focused transport routes. The landscape is defined by the massive uplift of Mt. Diablo and North Peak, with numerous deep canyons such as Irish Canyon and Markley Canyon cutting through the terrain. To the west, Clayton serves as a transition point between the peaks and the surrounding valleys.
