1967 Map of Crump Lake

About this map

Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge dominates the eastern high desert landscape of this 1967 survey, where the dramatic fault-block topography of Hart Mountain drops sharply into the Warner Valley. The map documents a complex hydrological system of the Warner Lakes, specifically the connection between Hart Lake and Crump Lake via a slender channel known as The Narrows. At the base of the mountain range, isolated water sources like Hot Springs and various unnamed Springs provide critical points of interest for those studying the arid basin-and-range environment. The presence of a Pack Trail winding through Fisher Canyon and Riffle Canyon suggests the traditional routes used to navigate this steep, uneven terrain before more modern access was established. Smaller features such as Fisher Lake, Wool Lake, and the expansive Alkali Flat further define the varied surface conditions of the valley floor.
