2011 Map of Whiteline Reservoir

About this map

Janssen Ranch, Edgewood Ranch, and Coleman Ranch anchor a landscape defined by livestock operations and water management in this 2011 survey of Klamath County. The terrain transitions from the high ground of Twomile Ridge and Grizzly Butte down into productive valleys such as Antelope Valley and Meadow Lake Valley. This era's infrastructure is dominated by water sources critical to the high desert, including Whiteline Reservoir and the Meadow Lake Dam at Meadow Lake. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of the Gabriel Cemetery and Hibbert Cemetery, alongside several named springs like Chitwood Spring and Brookside Spring that likely served as early settlement nodes. The presence of the Oreteck Post Office in the southwest corner marks a specific hub of commerce and communication for this rural community.
