About this map

Anatone serves as the primary hub in this corner of Asotin County, situated near the intersection of Forgey Road and Mill Road. The landscape is defined by a series of deep drainages and prominent rises, including Meyer Ridge, Heffelfinger Ridge, and Bennett Ridge, which separate the waters of George Creek and Pintler Creek. These features illustrate the complex topography that shaped early settlement patterns and road placement in the region.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several notable landmarks, such as the Lake School and two burial grounds, Cloverland Cemetery and Lake Cemetery. Evidence of early agricultural infrastructure remains visible through the placement of Storage Bins and a Gravel Pit. The map also captures the transition from private land to public stewardship, showing the boundaries of the Umatilla National Forest and the Asotin Wildlife Area, while preserving local family names in features like Whitney Gulch and Wormell Gulch.
