About this map

Treasure Hill and the surrounding heights of the Mokomoke Mountains define this high-altitude landscape in the Humboldt National Forest. The map documents a complex network of historic access points, including the Treasure Access and Shermantown Access, which lead to the prominent flats of Bromide Flat and Chloride Flat. These names reflect the silver mining heritage of the region, specifically around the Siegel Mine and the Hidden Treasure Mine Trl.

Evidence of early settlement and its inhabitants is preserved in the location of South Cem, reached via the South Cem Trl and North Cem Trl. The site of Eberhardt sits at the head of Eberhardt Canyon, connected by the Eberhardt Site Trl. Numerous water sources, such as Roadside Spring and Applegarth Spring, are scattered throughout the White Pine Range, illustrating the critical infrastructure required for survival and industry in this arid environment.
