Notes
  • Significance: The hydraulicking ditches of the Rock Creek Mining District are early representatives of a hydraulic mining process invented in California in 1852. The ditches preserve an early localized implementation of this technology and vividly depict the methods of placer mining as practiced in Oregon. The ditches also illustrate the important symbiotic relationship between early stock raising and the mining industry.
