1981 Map of Ancient Lake Well

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Ancient Lake Well serves as a lone landmark in this high-desert territory along the border of Harney and Malheur Counties. Surveyed in the mid-1970s and finalized in the early 1980s, the map documents an arid and largely unpopulated landscape dominated by the prominent geological formation of Grassy Ridge. The topography is characterized by intricate contour intervals that reveal a complex network of dry washes and high plateaus. This area, primarily used for rangeland, shows minimal human footprint beyond the essential water infrastructure required for livestock, such as the namesake well and various unimproved four-wheel-drive tracks. The absence of established towns or permanent structures emphasizes the isolated nature of this corner of southeastern Oregon.
