1962 Map of Snake Lake

About this map

Surprise Valley and the high elevations of the South Warner Wilderness dominate this corner of the California-Nevada borderlands. The landscape transitions sharply from the rugged terrain of the Modoc National Forest, marked by peaks like Hat Mountain, down to the alkaline flats of Lower Lake. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by the Sworinger Reservoir and its spillway, alongside natural features like Snake Lake and numerous canyon-side springs.
