2015 Map of Pease Flat

About this map

Oregon and California meet along a remote boundary line defined by high-desert plateaus and water management infrastructure. The landscape is dominated by the intersection of the Fremont National Forest and Modoc National Forest, where the terrain drops from the Dry Creek Rim toward the western shores of Goose Lake. This 2015 survey reveals a complex network of ranching and conservation features, including the Householder Reservoir, Everly Reservoir, and the curiously named Meteorite Tank. Access to these isolated uplands is provided by the extensive Weyerhaeuser Road system and various spurs like S Main. Named water sources such as Hole-in-the-Ground Spring and Back Tuttle Spring suggest the critical importance of reliable water in this arid borderland region near Pease Flat.
