The Historic Placer Claim in Umatilla County Oregon is in the North East region of the state. The North Fork River District has a documented record of gold deposits. This claim is located on the North Fork John River right next to a paved road and camp sites in area. Easy drive from local town.

NORTH FORK DISTRICT: The North Fork district includes the drainage area of the North Fork, John Day River, and Desolation Creek between lat 44045' and 45000' N. and long 118015' and 118055' W. This is a placer district that dates back to the early 1860's. The total minimum production to 1914 at $893,000 in gold (about 43,000 ounces); since then, lots more ounces have been reported from the district. The principal mines were the French Diggings and the North Fork. At the French Diggings both moraine and stream gravels were mined, and at the North Fork a gold-bearing terminal moraine was mined.

This is a rare opportunity to own Placera claim on the River, the entire stretch is claimed. It has a great riverside campsite and easy access to the North Fork John River. Bring the whole family and enjoy hiking, fishing, camping, as well as finding your fortune! Opportunities abound for panning, sluicing, metal detecting, and highbanking. Summertime temperatures here range from night time lows in the 50s to day time highs in the 80s to 90s.
