USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The gold-bearing ridges of Sierra and Nevada Counties are mapped here in detail, showcasing a landscape deeply carved by hydraulic mining and hard-rock exploration. Pike and North Columbia stand as the primary settlements, while the surrounding hills are peppered with legendary claims such as the Omega Mine, the Kate Hardy Mine, and the Red Ledge Mine. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations including Pliocene Ridge, Juan Ridge, and Chalk Ridge, which drop sharply toward the Middle Yuba River.
