1961 Map of Whitney

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Sumpter Valley Railroad corridor anchors this portion of the Whitman National Forest, tracing the path of the narrow-gauge line that once served the region's timber and gold interests. Along the North Fork Burnt River, the town of Whitney stands as a central point of settlement, complete with its nearby Cem and a Water Tank. The surrounding landscape is heavily marked by the area's extractive history, from the Dredge Tailings along the riverbanks to the Corey & Meadows Placer and the Ranes & Borger Mine in the northern hills.
