About this map

Goose Lake dominates the eastern edge of this landscape, where the high desert terrain of southern Oregon meets the California border. This 2018 survey reveals a territory defined by careful water management and timber access, positioned within the overlapping boundaries of the Fremont National Forest and Modoc National Forest. The map documents a network of forest roads and spurs, including Weyerhaeuser Road and North Main, which provide access to the high plateau above Dry Creek Rim.

At the heart of the quadrangle lies Pease Flat, a significant basin surrounded by scattered water sources like Everly Reservoir, Householder Reservoir, and Meteorite Tank. These man-made features, alongside naturally occurring points like Hole-in-Ground Spring and Poison Spring, highlight the essential infrastructure required for ranching and forest management in this arid transition zone between Lake and Modoc counties.
