About this map

Wilson Cr defines the drainage of this interior section of the Columbia Plateau, where the high desert meets the structured grid of regional agriculture. This 2013 survey records a landscape shaped by long-standing homesteads and section lines, primarily defined by the border between Grant County and Lincoln County. The terrain is marked by gradual elevation changes and seasonal watercourses like Gibson Draw, illustrating the hydrological patterns of the Big Bend country.

A network of local roads preserves the names of early farming families, offering valuable context for genealogical research. Prominent corridors such as Christensen Rd E, Peha Rd N, and Buddrius Rd N link the various farmsteads and rangelands. The absence of concentrated urban development highlights the area's role as a vast agricultural productive zone during the early 21st century, with well-defined township and range boundaries including t24n r31e and t25n r31e.
