1995 Map of Rackerby
USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
The boundary between Butte and Yuba Counties defines the landscape of this mid-1990s survey, where the western edge of Plumas National Forest meets a cluster of historical Sierra Nevada foothills settlements. Centered on Rackerby and Brownsville, the map shows a community structure rooted in nineteenth-century resource extraction and valley agriculture. Evidence of the region's mining heritage is visible in the Three in One Mine and the Manzanita Mine, while the social infrastructure of the time is preserved through landmarks like the Sharon Valley Sch, Hansonville Sch, and the New York Flat Cem. Transport and water management are critical themes, with the Brownsville Aero Pines Airport serving the area while the Sowell Flume and Honcut Creek drain the surrounding heights of Weiss Hill and Hansonville Hill. Small family-named holdings, such as Finley Ranch and Rose Ranch, dot the terrain near Frenchtown and Robinson Mills.
