History

Шаблон:Unreferenced section

Grass Flat was established as a gold mining camp during the California Gold Rush (1848-1850s), in the far northern Northern Mines District.

The scarred landscapes from hydraulic mining during the gold rush, at Grass Flat and nearby, remain primarily barren of vegetation over 160 years later. Ponds fill the depressions formed by the hydraulic surface mining technique.
