1966 Map of Bluejoint Lake East

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Bluejoint Lake and the dramatic escarpment of Poker Jim Ridge dominate this mid-century survey of the high desert along the Harney and Lake County line. The landscape is defined by the sharp vertical transition from the flat floor of the Warner Valley to the uplifted plateau of Hart Mountain, a region preserved within the Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge. Sparse water sources like Rock Creek and Snyder Creek cut through the terrain, with Snyder Canyon providing a primary drainage route from the heights. This map records the early boundaries and physical state of the wildlife refuge before significant modern development, showing the remote fencelines and unimproved tracks that served the region's conservation and ranching interests in the 1960s.
