2023 Map of Loco Lake

About this map

Loco Lake sits at the center of this Lake County terrain, where the high desert landscape is defined by stark elevation changes and essential water catchments. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by a significant escarpment, punctuated by Fivemile Point, while the northern section features the prominent heights of Tenmile Ridge and Tenmile Butte. In an arid environment where water dictates the movement of both wildlife and industry, named features like Bailey Waterhole and South Gat Waterhole represent critical landmarks. The map illustrates a sparse, open territory organized by the Public Land Survey System, showing the intersections of Township 31 and 32 South across Ranges 18 and 19 East. This 2023 survey provides a clear view of the natural topography and remote landmarks that characterize this part of the Oregon interior.
