GNIS

Note that USGS doesn't recognize Goose Lake Valley as a geographic feature, although it appears to be a common designation going back many years. This article might be better categorized as a region rather than a valley. Katr67 (talk) 02:00, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If it is going to be viewed as a region, then the wildlife categories might be expanded to include all the varieties in the adjacent hills. Numerous bird species live in the hills that are only occasional in the valley.Uniquerman (talk) 00:43, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Goose Lake Valley

Could someone tell me how and when it came to be known as Goose Lake Valley? Has this now become an official designation? Who designated it?

I grew up in Lakeview and had never heard it called Goose Lake Valley until I saw the Wikipedia article. It was always Goose Valley.

No big deal.Uniquerman (talk) 00:21, 4 June 2011 (UTC)Uniquerman (talk) 00:30, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
