2024 Map of Alkali Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

The Alkali Valley floor dominates the northern half of this Lake County quadrangle, showing the distinct seasonal and geographic isolation of the high desert basin. To the south, the terrain shifts dramatically where the contours tighten around the prominent rise of Venator Butte, a significant landmark that breaks the valley horizon. This survey illustrates a sparse, water-dependent landscape where small, named water sources like Horror Spring, Hutton Spring, and the uniquely named Nasty Pond provide the only breaks in the arid expanse. The southern slopes of the butte are marked by the Animal Bedground, while the presence of BLM RD 6104 indicates the modern management of this remote public land. The map offers a clear view of the Public Land Survey System grid, including corners for t30s r23e and t31s r22e, which are essential for tracing historical land claims and grazing rights.
