2011 Map of South of Ana River

About this map

Summer Lake dominates the landscape of this high-desert region in Lake County, defining the western half of the terrain. This 2011 survey illustrates the vast basin where the water meets a series of intricate drainage patterns and seasonal stream channels carved into the eastern flats. The map documents the shoreline and hydrologic character of this endorheic basin at the start of the decade, showing how the ephemeral water systems interact with the alkaline lake bed. Beyond the water's edge, the area is characterized by the expansive open space of the Oregon high desert, with minimal modern development or road infrastructure visible within this specific quadrangle.
