1971 Map of Borax Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Borax Works (Site) occupies a central position in the Pueblo Valley, marking a point where early industrial efforts met the geothermal reality of the Oregon high desert. This 1971 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its thermal activity, featuring numerous Spring (Hot) labels and the thermal waters of Borax Lake and the Lower Borax Lake Reservoir. These water sources are critical features in an otherwise arid expanse where the seasonal waters of Alvord Lake and Dry Lake dictate the geography.
