Rocklin California |
The Rocklin area that early miners traveled through to the gold mines east of Sacramento was made up of groves of oak trees with Digger Pine mixed in. Gold was really the incentive which brought people to the area, although no big gold deposits were ever written about in the Rocklin area.
Rocklin is located in Placer County. The suburb of Rocklin is located on Interstate 80 east of Sacramento. Folsom Dam and Folsom Lake are nearby.
Rocklin is part of the Sacramento, California metro area.
