FootPrints American River – North Fork

Description

North Fork of the American River, California – $89.95

This is an amazing map. Never before has California seen a map with so much key information 

for prospectors consolidated and presented clearly with a few simple
clicks.

From the cold waters of the American River up the steep canyons to the tertiary gravel
deposits at Iowa Hill, Foresthill, Gold Run and every hill in between, there has
been gold found throughout the drainage basin of the North Fork of the American
River.

To put you on the path to this Gold, we dug deep to find the Old Maps of the Tertiary River
Channels and Gravel Beds. We located geologic folios, reports, studies and maps
to provide 7 map layers detailing the geology of these goldfields.

Historic gold locations are easily found with our custom map layer showing Mineral Patents
granted for Proven gold lands. A well-researched and documented mines layer
tells you where the mines are and details their history.

The North Fork of the American River watershed has thousands of acres of public land open to
prospect and claim. Included are map layers showing Land Ownership, current
Placer and Lode Claims, as well as Mineral Withdrawals for Power Sites and
Reclamation.

With 70 selectable map layers designed for prospectors, a huge searchable database,
detailed reports & documents, tools for measuring & drawing, and GPS
capabilities, you have everything you need to print yourself a custom gold
map.

The North Fork of the American River

Since gold was first discovered in California, prospectors have been digging, dredging,
dowsing, drilling, detecting and discovering gold along the American River. And
they still haven’t found it all.

Before you head up the canyon to find your share, you need to know the answer to a few
questions.

Where is the best place to look?
How can I get there?
Can I prospect and stake a claim there?

FootPrints was designed to help you answer these questions and more.
