2020 Map of Agency Lake

About this map

Klamath Agency and the town of Chiloquin anchor this map of the marshlands where the Wood River and Williamson River enter Agency Lake. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape heavily managed for water control, shown by the extensive network of the Sevenmile Canal, B Canal, and Wood River Canal that crisscross the Wood River Valley. These canals contrast with the preserved wetlands of the Upper Klamath National Wildlife Refuge and the Wood River Marsh, reflecting the complex balance between agricultural drainage and ecological preservation. To the east, the terrain rises into the timberlands of the Winema National Forest, punctuated by Steiger Butte. Local history is preserved in the locations of Lobert Cem and Wilson Cem, while the Chiloquin State Airport marks the modern transportation infrastructure serving this portion of Klamath County.
