This historic mining town, and other towns and mining camps of the gold rush era now inundated by Folsom Lake, are commemorated by the nearby Mormon Island Memorial Cemetery. Here were reburied the pioneers whose graves were flooded when the lake was formed by Folsom Dam.

Condemned Bar was situated along the North Fork of the American River 2.5 miles north-northeast of the confluence of the North Fork and South Fork.
