California Gold Country. Actual. This artist's rendition shows the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and the locations of recreation and historic sites. A second map shows the main roads in the area. In my opinion this map is a good idea that needs a little finishing polish; the road map covers the main roads, but not the backroads which make exploring the Gold Country so much fun and the artist's rendition of the terrain just doesn't capture the vertical relief in the area. A new map by the same group is due shortly for the Columbia River Gorge - hopefully it will show more detail.
