1967 Map of Swede Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge dominates this landscape, preserving a high-desert environment defined by the prominent ridge of Hart Mountain. The 1967 field check reveals a network of seasonal water bodies and drainages, including the large expanse of Desert Lake and smaller catchments like Fitzgerald Lake and Link Lake. Topographic details highlight the relief of Swede Knoll and the descent of Black Canyon in the north, while ephemeral flows are traced through Deer Creek and Robinson Draw. A sparse network of Jeep Trails provides the primary means of access through this protected basin-and-range territory, illustrating the remote character of Lake County's high plateau before modern infrastructure expansion. The map serves as a detailed record of the refuge's hydrology and landform before later environmental shifts impacted these delicate desert sinks.
