1939 Map of Yreka
USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
Klamath Mountains and the winding Klamath River dominate this 1930s landscape of Northern California, where gold mining and cattle ranching established the early infrastructure. The map details a region transitioning from its pioneer mining boom, evidenced by numerous named claims like the Commodore Mine, Hegler Mine, and McKinley Mine. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary artery for the eastern valley settlements of Hornbrook, Montague, and Gazelle, while the western reach is defined by the Scott Valley agricultural hub around Fort Jones.
