Soda Springs Live Cam

Soda Springs is a small unincorporated community located in Nevada County, California. The history of Soda Springs is closely tied to the development of the region during the California Gold Rush in the mid-19th century.

Gold Rush Era: The discovery of gold in California in 1848 triggered the famous Gold Rush, drawing thousands of people to the area in search of fortune. Soda Springs, like many other places in California, experienced a population boom as prospectors, miners, and settlers arrived in the region.

Mineral Springs: The name "Soda Springs" is derived from the natural mineral springs found in the area. These springs were known for their effervescent or "soda" qualities, which attracted attention from both settlers and Native American populations.
