2011 Map of Batum

About this map

Batum sits at the heart of this rural landscape in Adams County, where a strictly organized grid of agricultural roads defines the terrain. The presence of the Titan Missile Silo near N Batum Rd provides a striking reminder of Cold War defense infrastructure integrated into the eastern Washington wheat country. This landscape is largely defined by its sparse settlement and functional transit routes like Tokio Rd W and Griffith Rd W. Local heritage is anchored by the Ammaus Cemetery in the northwest, while the Tree Heart Ranch Airport and the natural water source at Rock Spring illustrate the intersection of private aviation and the vital role of water in this semi-arid region.
