Joys Of Fall Colors
. ' And History Here
Three years agoSunset Magazine did a feature
spread on Nevada City and the brilliant display
of autumn color to'be seen in the city.
Sunset recommended the fall color and the gold
country sights to the visitor.
The following year the Nevada City Chamber }
of Commerce:picked up-the idea of drawing visi.
tors tothe city in the autumn, this was the story
of the Fall Color Spectaculor.
Last year The Nugget, taking advantage of the
color in the leaves, the interest of the visitors
and the city merchants, published the first Fall
Festival Edition in Color. ‘
This year the Charter is combining its Fall
Color Spectaculor witha photography contest The
contest, for black and white pictures, will be .
conducted throughout the month of October. .
Pictures are limited to those taken within a one .
mile radius of the city.
The Nugget this year is combining the celebration of autumncolor by providing visitors with
a variety of tours of Nevada City and the sur
rounding. area.
Featured inthis section are five walking tours
of the city and three driving tours of the city and {. ,
scenic areas of the county. {Inside the reader
will find simple maps marked with sights of interest, a brief history of some of the points of
interest and pictures of some of the city's most
famous historical sites and views.
Unlike most of its Mother Lode counterparts,
inthe pine clad Sierra foothills, Nevada City is
ablaze with the color of fall foliage because many
of the large colorful trees here today were brought
t here by the emigrant families.
The old board sidewalk on upper Main Street,
a view of which is seen on this page is surrounded witha variety of hardwood and fruit trees.
Many of these were brought across the country
by wagon in the great rush to the gold country.
Nevada City residents and visitors alike are
grateful today to these residents of the past for
their thoughfulness in bringing these trees to
Nevada City allows us to enjoy our fall color NEVADA CITY'S twisting, hilly streets are full of color at this time of year. A color tour will.also
spectaculor today take the visitor back in history to the roaring gold mine days. This quiet scene of the old boara side: walk on upper Main Street shows 4 €ombination of the city's past and present.
