About this map

The town of Bonanza serves as the focal point of this late-twentieth-century landscape, situated where the Lost River winds through a high-desert basin. The geography is defined by broad flats like Yonna Valley and Langell Valley, separated by the steep rises of Short Lake Mountain and Bryant Mountain. Water management is central to the area's layout, evidenced by the presence of Harpold Dam, various pumping stations, and the seasonal character of Alkali Lake and Short Lake. The map details the rural infrastructure of the era, from a local Landing Strip and Radio Tower to the small community Cem and several gravel pits. These features suggest an economy closely tied to the land and the control of water resources in this part of Klamath County.
