Sutter Creek and the surrounding Mother Lode gold belt are depicted in detail during the early 1960s, a period when the deep-rock mining heritage was still physically dominant on the landscape. The map highlights numerous major historical operations, including the Kennedy Mine, Oneida Mine, and Old Eureka Mine, alongside the vast tailings piles that characterize the terrain around Jackson and Martell. This survey is particularly notable for recording the geography just prior to the full filling of Camanche Reservoir, with blue hatching indicating the specific areas along the Mokelumne River and Coyote Creek slated for submergence.
