2021 Map of Ellison

About this map

The confluence of the Humboldt River and the Reese River dominates this Humboldt County landscape, creating a complex network of wetlands and seasonal watercourses. The presence of McIntyre Slough and Herrin Slough indicates a highly braided river system where water levels fluctuate significantly across the valley floor. Near the northern boundary, the settlement of Ellison sits positioned along the drainage of Sheep Cr, illustrating the historical pattern of placing small outposts at the intersection of dependable water sources and the broader transit corridors of the Great Basin. Modern transportation is represented by Frontage Rd and Mote Rd, which trace the path of earlier wagon routes and railroad alignments through this arid basin, while Trout Cr descends from higher ground to meet the valley's primary aquatic arteries.
