2018 Map of Tinemaha Reservoir

About this map

Tinemaha Reservoir sits at the center of this hydrographic landscape, where the Owens River feeds into the impoundment before continuing south through the Owens Valley. To the west, the Poverty Hills rise sharply from the valley floor, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the steep ascent into the White-Inyo Range within the Inyo National Forest. This 2018 survey captures the intricate network of water management features and natural springs, including Big Seeley Spring, Little Seeley Spring, and Mule Spring, which sustain life in this arid basin. High-altitude features like Harkless Flat and its associated Harkless Flat Spur overlook the valley, providing a clear view of the transport corridors such as Fish Springs Rd and the bypass of Old Hwy 395 that define modern movement through the region.
