2020 Map of Sagebrush Knoll

About this map

The high desert landscape of the Oregon outback is defined by the subtle topography of the Flint Hills and Flint Ridge in the southern portion of this quadrangle. This 2020 survey tracks the precise boundary of the Lake Co Harney Co line as it bisects the high country. Human activity is represented primarily through a network of remote access routes, including Corn Lake Rd and Co Rd 6185, which navigate the drainage systems like Badger Draw. The presence of the Nat For Dev Rd 6130 indicates the managed nature of this landscape, where land use is dictated by federal oversight and the rugged requirements of the Great Basin terrain. It is a map of wide-open spaces where relief is found in named ridges and the occasional county road.
