About this map

Tripoli and McCord sit along the east-west corridor of Highway 8, serving as the primary nodes of settlement in this part of Lincoln County. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, with the Somo River and Little Somo River winding through the terrain to converge near Somo Lake in the southeast. These rivers are fed by numerous smaller streams, including Brant Creek, Landwehr Creek, and Hauser Creek, which drain a region characterized by low-lying wetlands and scattered bodies of water like Bass Lake.

A notable landmark is the Shot and Hook Club E3870 Dam located on the Little Somo River, indicating local water management or recreational infrastructure. The drainage patterns of the Little Rice River in the northeast corner further emphasize the hydrographic complexity of the area. This 2010 survey reflects a quiet, rural timber or recreation-oriented landscape where the natural flow of water dictates the placement of roads and small communities.
