2011 Map of Appledale

About this map

Douglas Creek carves through the central portion of this landscape, anchoring the small settlement of Appledale. The terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations typical of the region, including the northern reach of Sutherland Canyon and the southern Crater Coulee. This 2011 survey reveals a transition from these natural landforms to the structured agricultural grid common in Grant County, as evidenced by the dense network of county roads like Road 12 NW and S NW Rd that segment the southern plains. Further north, the landscape remains more open and dictated by the geography of the hills, with primary access provided by Baird Springs Rd and Willow Springs Rd near the community of Willow Springs. The map offers a clear view of how rural infrastructure navigates the coulees and canyons of Washington's interior.
