1988 Map of Lenz

About this map

Lenz Ranch and the small settlement of Sand anchor this Klamath County landscape as it appeared in the late 1980s. The area is defined by its arid character, specifically the northern reaches of the Desert, which is segmented by modern infrastructure including a Wooden Pole Trans Line Pipeline. While the western edge is bordered by the Winema National Forest, the heart of the map centers on water management and ranching operations. Numerous Flowing Wells and Springs provide vital resources in this dry terrain, supporting localized activity near Lenz Corral. The presence of a Flume along Lenz Creek and a Cinder Pit to the north suggests a landscape where small-scale resource extraction and livestock management are primary. Watercourses like Cow Creek, Scott Creek, and Sand Creek chart the drainage patterns across this high-desert environment.
