About this map

The Klamath River flows through the southern portion of this landscape, where the Keno Dam and its associated Fish Ladder manage the waters of the Keno Reservoir. The community of Keno is established near the riverbanks, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural and wildlands. The terrain is defined by a series of north-south valleys and ridges, including the Long Lake Valley and Indian Spring Ridge.

Extensive water management features, such as a prominent Levee system and several drainage canals, shape the margins of Long Lake and the Wocus Marsh. To the southeast, the map shows the upper reaches of the Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge, indicating the importance of this area as a migratory corridor. Utility infrastructure, including a Steel Tower Transmission Line, cuts across the ridges, reflecting the mid-20th-century development of the regional power grid.
