1981 Map of Coyote Lake East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Coyote Lake dominates the western portion of this 1981 survey, where its expansive, dry alkali bed meets the southeastern high desert of Malheur County. This area is characterized by vast drainage patterns and seasonal water features, including the presence of Duck Cr in the southern sections. The landscape is a study in basin-and-range topography, where the flat expanse of the lake bed transitions into rising elevations and complex contour intervals. Because this region was mapped via photogrammetric methods from 1974 aerial photography and field-checked in 1976, it provides a precise record of the desert terrain before any modern alterations. Geologists and environmental researchers can trace the ancient shoreline of the lake and the intermittent flow paths that define this isolated stretch of the Oregon desert.
