2023 Map of Ana River

About this map

Ana River flows through this high desert basin in Lake County, serving as a vital artery for the Summer Lake Migratory Waterfowl and Game Management Area. The landscape is defined by the intersection of freshwater sources and alkaline basins, where Schoolhouse Lake and Buckhorn Spring provide localized water points in an otherwise arid environment. The vast wetlands shown here are part of a critical conservation corridor, with the northern reaches of Summer Lake dominating the southern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation is limited to a few essential routes like Co HWY 4-17, reflecting the area's sparse settlement and focus on wildlife habitat and natural resource management within the cadastral frameworks of t30s r17e and t31s r17e.
