1967 Map of Rabbit Hills SW

About this map

The Warner Valley edge and the high desert terrain of Lake County define this landscape as it was documented in the late 1960s and updated in 1980. The map reveals a land structured by water and elevation, where the Rabbit Hills and Coyote Hills dominate the topography. Localized drainage systems such as Mary Ann Draw, Miners Draw, and Mulkey Wells Draw indicate the historical importance of water management in this arid environment. Traces of human activity are sparse but significant, primarily represented by the Hogback Road and various Jeep Trails that traverse the sagebrush. These routes, alongside features like Hogback Well and several Spring points, suggest a landscape primarily used for ranching and resource access. The presence of Alkali Flats in the eastern section highlights the basin-and-range characteristics of this high Oregon plateau.
