1951 Map of Quincy

About this map

Quincy serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the high-elevation terrain of the Plumas National Forest. The map documents a transition from early extraction to a more modern infrastructure, noting the County Fairgrounds, Gansner Airport, and County Hospital near the town center. While industrial activity remains evident at the Crescent Hill Mine and Sugar Pine Mine, several earlier locations like Nelson Point and Onion Valley are already identified as sites rather than active settlements.
