2017 Map of Priday Reservoir

About this map

Warner Valley dominates the eastern landscape of this Lake County region, where the steep escarpment of Lynchs Rim drops toward a chain of high-desert basins. The hydrologic network is the primary feature of this arid terrain, characterized by a series of named water sources essential for livestock and local wildlife. From the larger waters of Hart Lake and Crump Lake to the secluded Ballew Lake, the area is punctuated by specialized features like Sidewinder Waterhole and Boulder Waterhole. The map reveals a land managed for its limited water, with numerous spring-fed sites such as Anthony Springs, Lynch Spring, and Noonan Springs scattered across the sagebrush-covered hills. Cultural modifications like Priday Reservoir and the network of roads, including Plush Adel Rd and Hogback Rd, facilitate movement through the open expanses of Monument Flat and the surrounding high country.
