About this map

The North Fork Salmon River carves a deep path through the heart of the Klamath National Forest, defining a landscape where industrial gold mining and early California settlement left a permanent mark. Near the eastern edge, the community of Sawyers Bar serves as the primary hub, situated just downstream from the historic Bestville (Site). The river corridor is a chronicle of mineral extraction, evidenced by extensive Dredge Tailings and numerous named workings such as the New Diggings Mine, Hickey Mine, and Gellia Mine.
