2011 Map of Gumboot Lake

About this map

Paradise Valley and the surrounding high desert of Humboldt County are defined by the winding course of the Little Humboldt River. In the early 21st century, this landscape remains primarily agricultural and ranching land, centered around legacy holdings such as Reil Ranch and Stewart Ranch. The topographical survey illustrates the reliance on seasonal water sources like Big Cottonwood Creek and the eponymous Gumboot Lake, which sits at the heart of the Dutch Flat area. The intersection of Dutch Flat Rd and Pole Line Rd marks the primary transit network through this part of the Great Basin, where the flat valley floor begins its ascent into the steep terrain of Sodarisi Canyon and Long Canyon to the east.
