About this map

Pliocene Ridge and Grizzly Ridge dominate this rugged section of the Tahoe National Forest, documenting the landscape shortly after the era of intensive hydraulic mining. The map captures the divide between Sierra Co and Nevada Co along the Middle Yuba River, showing a network of historic mining operations such as the Omega Mine and the Alaska Mine (Site). Local history is grounded in small settlements and family ranch sites like Pike, Clerkins Ranch, and North Columbia.
