1979 Map of Soapstone Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The North Fork Feather River and the Western Pacific RR corridor define the northwest corner of this rugged Sierra Nevada landscape within the Plumas National Forest. The map documents a territory defined by resource extraction and high-country grazing, featuring established mining operations such as the Soapstone Mine, Silver Star Mine, and the Lucky Laddie Mine. The transition of local settlements is evident at Buckeye and Merrimac, which are marked as former sites rather than active towns by the late 1970s.
