About this map

Coyote Hills and the southern slopes of the Rabbit Hills dominate this high-desert landscape in Lake County, Oregon. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage channels and cattle-country improvements typical of the mid-1960s, including the winding Mary Ann Draw and Mulkey Wells Draw. To the east, the elevation drops sharply into the expansive Warner Valley, where the surface transitions to a series of Alkali Flats.

Transport and water access in this arid region are limited to primitive routes like Hogback Road and several unnamed Jeep Trails that connect vital water sources such as Hogback Well and various high-country Springs. The presence of Miners Draw suggests historical prospecting or resource extraction, while the scattered wells and draws highlight the area's essential relationship with water management for livestock grazing during this era.
