About this map

The town of Paradise sits at the northeastern edge of this mid-century landscape, perched where the industrial footprint of mining and timber meets the complex drainage of the Sierra Nevada foothills. Extensive Tailings deposits line the banks of Butte Creek and Chico Creek, reflecting a history of hydraulic operations that reshaped the local topography. The Southern Pacific railroad and the Skyway traverse the northern ridges, providing critical transport links through a region defined by steep canyons and prominent natural landmarks like Steamboat Rock and Castle Rock.
