East Branch Huer Huero Creek (usually dry) bed & vineyards

Highlight • Natural

While the water can form a long and wide river or lake after rains, this branch of the creek is usually dry. The surrounding farms and vineyards depend on ground water.

Monte Mills & the Lucky Horseshoe Band - Mini Wild West Town

Highlight • Structure

When you come by his horse ranch you first notice the replica mini wild west town and saloon, with the sun-bleached name of Monte Mills' band. Monte Mills is best known as a yodeling singing cowboy in The Western United States - still doing some 50 shows per year. But he's also known around these parts as one of the best Farriers in the region. Monte's been a cowboy for as long as anyone can remember taking care of horses throughout the California Central Coast. Monte delivers the highest standard in quality and care to his horseshoeing business, and occasionally a yodel or two to make the horses smile. montemills.com

Huer Huero Creek

Highlight • River

Upper Huer Huero Creek forms a lush valley in spring, but the cacti give a sense of how dry the area looks like in summer and for two thirds of the year.

Parkhill Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Joyful ride through the wide and flat Huer Huero Creek valley. No traffic on a smooth county road. Try to come during wildflower season in spring.

Rinconada Trailhead

Highlight • Trail

There is a big gravel lot at the trailhead and access to a network of dirt trails that wind their way up into the hills. Rinconada Mercury Mine is just west of the trailhead. The ruins have been heavily graffitied with brightly colored art and the mine opens up to a huge cave in the ground.
