About this map

Saint Patrick Mountain anchors this high-desert landscape in Lake County, where water management is the defining human imprint on the terrain. In a region where reliable moisture is scarce, the map reveals a network of small impoundments and vital sources such as Saint Patrick Reservoir, Sioux Reservoir, and Settlement Waterhole. These features, alongside numbered county waterholes, illustrate the essential infrastructure required for ranching and wildlife in the Oregon outback.

The topography is marked by significant drainages and elevations, including Fandango Canyon and the prominent Diablo Rim to the south. The presence of State Game Reservoir Number 7 and State Game Reservoir Number 6 indicates a landscape managed for conservation and habitat. Roads like Sheep Rock Rd provide some of the few access points through the diverse terrain of Juniper Canyon and the Black Points.
