About this map

The South Fork American River carves through this Gold Country landscape, where the Sacramento and Placerville Railroad terminates at the hub of Placerville. Surveyed in the late 1880s, the map reveals an intricate network of mining claims and transportation landmarks vital to the region's mineral economy. From the historic site of Coloma to the isolated Mammoth Mine and Starlight Mine, the terrain is marked by the persistent search for gold.
