2011 Map of Sheeplick Draw

About this map

Sheeplick Draw characterizes this corner of Lake County, Oregon, where a series of numbered reservoirs and seasonal catchments define the high desert water management of the early 21st century. The map reveals an intricate network of artificial basins, including Guinee Reservoir Number 1, Guinee Reservoir Number 2, and two segments of the O'Leary system. These features, alongside Johnson Creek Spring and Deadhorse Spring, suggest a landscape historically shaped by ranching and resource conservation. Natural landmarks like Squaw Butte and Flatiron Point rise above the basin floor, while transit through this remote section of the Great Basin is facilitated by Shuffield Rd and County Hwy 4-18.
