USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
Nevada City serves as the focal point of this late-twentieth-century study, situated at the base of the Sierra foothills near the southern edge of the map. The landscape to the north and east is heavily defined by its gold mining history, clearly marked by extensive operations such as the Cherokee Diggings, Sebastopol Diggings, and North Columbia Diggings. These large-scale surface excavations, alongside various Gravel Pits and a Hydraulic Mine, demonstrate the lasting physical impact of hydraulic mining on the region's topography.
