1967 Map of Barton Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Dry Lake Reservoir and the volcanic landscape of Diamond Craters dominate this Harney County quadrangle, surveyed in 1967 and updated with 1979 photorevisions. The map documents a sparsely settled high-desert environment where water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by the presence of Barton Ranch and a network of essential water sources including Voltage Well, Beckley Well, and Barton Lake Well. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by Riddle Creek feeding into the local basin, while the eponymous Barton Lake and nearby White Lake sit in the shadow of prominent ridgelines. The transition between the 1960s field data and 1980 publication shows the persistence of these remote ranching outposts and their reliance on these isolated watering points.
