1968 Map of Wildhorse Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Steens Mountain dominates this survey, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic glacial cirques and the radial drainage patterns of the high desert. The map captures the high-altitude hydrology of the region, from the headwaters of the Little Blitzen River to the isolated basins of Wildhorse Lake and Little Wildhorse Lake. Human presence is marked by seasonal and utilitarian outposts, including the Jackman Park campground and The Hunters Cabin, connected by the winding Steens Mountain Loop. This 1968 field-checked record provides a detailed look at the geographic prominence of Devine Rock and the intricate creek networks, such as Kiger Creek and Big Indian Creek, that carve through the basalt before descending toward the Alvord Desert.
