About this map

The Columbia River dominates this landscape as it carves through the dramatic Sentinel Gap between Sentinel Bluffs and the surrounding high desert. This 2011 survey documents the area's infrastructure and riverside settlements, including the town of Beverly and nearby Schwana. The northern edge is anchored by the Wanapum Dam, which regulates the river's flow and supports the adjacent Wanapum Village.

Historically significant transportation routes are evident throughout the quadrangle, notably the Iron Horse Trl and John Wayne Trl, which follow old railroad corridors through the basalt cliffs. These paths intersect at Beverly Junction, reflecting the region's rail heritage. Water resources beyond the main river are also detailed, such as Nunnally Lake, Lower Crab Creek, and Hanson Creek, providing a clear picture of the arid environment's hydrology.
