About this map

Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge dominates this high-desert landscape in Lake County, where steep fault-block escarpments rise toward Warner Peak and Hart Mtn. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic drainages, including North Fork DeGarmo Canyon and South Fork DeGarmo Canyon, which carve through the volcanic uplands. These canyons provide a stark contrast to the broader basins like Spanish Flat, which contains the ephemeral Spanish Lake.

Evidence of early range management and seasonal habitation appears at Post Meadows, while the distribution of water sources like Indian Springs and Cottonwood Spring reflects the critical importance of riparian zones in this arid environment. The map details a network of canyons and draws, such as Martin Canyon and Robinson Draw, which have historically served as corridors for both wildlife and livestock moving between the high peaks and the surrounding valley floors.
