1949 Map of Rough And Ready

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Rough and Ready stands at the heart of this post-war landscape, situated amidst the complex network of water infrastructure that defined the California Gold Country. The legacy of hydraulic and hard-rock mining is visible through extensive waterworks like the China Ditch, Pet Hill Ditch, and Lower Ditch, which once channeled water to claims across the ridges. While several sites like the Black Bear Mine and Mistletoe Mine are noted as inactive by the late 1940s, they mark the historical industry of the Kentucky Ridge area.
