The town of Albion and the small settlements of Armstrong and Kitzmiller anchor this Palouse landscape in Whitman County. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the South Fork Palouse River and several of its tributaries, including Fourmile Creek and Rose Creek. Prominent landmarks such as Kamiak Butte and Smoot Hill rise above the agricultural fields and network of rural roads. Genealogists and local historians will find the exact locations of Mount Olivet Cemetery and Pitts Cemetery useful for tracing early regional family history. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is captured through sites like Eggers Airport and an extensive grid of named thoroughfares like Pullman Albion Rd and Palousealbion Rd, reflecting the transportation patterns connecting these rural communities and the surrounding wheat country.
