2011 Map of Mullinix Creek

About this map

Paradise Valley serves as the focal point for this section of Humboldt County, where the desert landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems. The water economy of the region is evident in the way Big Cottonwood Creek and Mullinix Creek converge and flow toward the valley floor, supporting several established homesteads. Notable local landholdings include the Buckingham Ranch and Pasquale Ranch, which sit along these primary watercourses. Further south, the Reconzone Ranch and Schwartz Ranch are situated near the banks of Hanson Creek, illustrating the historical reliance on these seasonal flows for ranching operations. To the north, the terrain rises toward Tom Basin, while various forks like Solid Silver Creek and South Fork Indian Creek carve through the high ground before reaching the valley.
