About this map

Antelope Flat and the surrounding high desert terrain define this corner of Klamath County, where water management is the dominant feature of the landscape. Numerous artificial impoundments, including the large Willow Valley Reservoir and Gerber Lower Division Reservoir, signify the region's historical reliance on seasonal water storage. The topography is marked by distinctive formations such as The Bumpheads, Horse Camp Rim, and the prominent Brady Butte.

Remote Bureau of Land Management routes like BLM RD 40-14.5-4.0 and Willow Valley Rd provide the primary access to these uplands. Evidence of natural water sources, including Jennette Spring, Lost River Spring, and Alkali Spring, are scattered throughout canyons like Bear Valley Canyon, reflecting the vital geography that once supported early livestock and ranching operations in this arid Oregon interior.
