About this map

West Side sits at the edge of a complex hydraulic landscape where the high desert meets the northern reaches of Goose Lake. This 2020 survey reveals how water is managed and distributed across the basin through a network of natural and engineered channels. The drainage patterns of Drews Cr and Thomas Creek converge toward the lakebed, interspersed with features like Barnes Slough and Cheney Slough.

Rural infrastructure is defined by a grid of county roads, including Westside Rd and Garrett Rd, which facilitate agricultural movement between the foothills and the lake. Family-named landmarks such as Christensen Ln and Fenimore-Garrett Rd reflect the enduring ranching and farming legacy of this part of Lake County. The map provides a clear record of the intersection between seasonal water courses like Antelope Cr and the local transport network near the California border.
