About this map

Goose Lake dominates this 1990s landscape, its northern shoreline defined by vast stretches of Mud and a prominent Causeway cutting across the shallows. The map highlights the intersection of public and tribal lands, illustrating the boundary of the XL Ranch Indian Reservation as it meets the Modoc National Forest near the water's edge. To the south, agricultural and ranching signatures appear along the periphery of the lake basin, including the Lakeshore Ranch and specialized infrastructure like Feeding Pens near Davis Creek.

Surface water management is a recurring theme on this terrain, with features such as the Ake Reservoir and numerous Springs providing vital resources in this arid region of Modoc County. The eastern shore transitions into shifting Sand Dunes, providing a distinct contrast to the marshy flats found elsewhere around McGinty Point. Small-scale industrial activity is noted by a single Pit located near the southern marshlands, offering a glimpse into local resource extraction.
