2014 Map of Adobe Flat

About this map

Anderson Valley and its high desert surroundings are defined by a complex network of seasonal water features and volcanic landforms. In this part of Harney County, life revolves around water management, evidenced by the Dracatos Reservoir and the nearby Dry Lake Reservoir. The landscape is punctuated by prominent landmarks such as Davison Butte, Kegler Butte, and the northern slopes of Little Riddle Mountain. These features, along with the Malheur Gap, create a natural corridor through which Anderson Valley Rd and Coon Town Rd pass. The map captures the remote character of the Adobe Flat area, where drainage ways like Dracatos Draw and Standcliff Cr carve through the basin, and ephemeral water bodies like Kegler Lake appear in the basin's low points.
