1966 Map of Coglan Buttes NE

About this map

Lake Abert dominates the eastern portion of this high desert landscape, recorded here at an elevation of 4,255 feet. The shoreline is marked by several freshwater springs and a notable cave at the base of the rising escarpment. To the west, the terrain rises sharply into the high ridges, cut by the prominent Coglan Canyon. This 1966 field-checked survey captures the remote character of Lake County's interior, where transportation was limited to rugged paths like the Old Hotchkiss Road and various unnamed jeep trails. The sparse labels and lack of permanent settlements highlight the area's isolation, serving as a primary source for understanding the physical geography and the minimal human footprint on the edge of Oregon's Great Basin during the mid-1960s.
