1987 Map of Star Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Humboldt Range dominates this landscape, reaching its highest elevation at the iconic Star Peak. This 1980s-era manuscript reveals an intensive history of mining across the mountain slopes, with numerous sites such as the Florida Canyon Mine, Starlight Mine, and Queen of Sheba Mine dotting the drainages. The Humboldt City (Site) and a nearby Cem suggest the location of earlier canyon-side settlements that once supported these extraction efforts.
