About this map

The Columbia River carves a dramatic path through the center of this landscape, separating Kittitas and Grant counties as it flows south toward the Priest Rapids. This mid-2010s survey captures the river corridor between Wanapum Lake and Priest Rapids Lake, a region defined by significant elevation changes and hydroelectric infrastructure. The small settlement of Beverly sits on the eastern bank near Beverly Junction, where the terrain rises sharply into the Saddle Mountains.

To the south, the river narrows through the geologic feature known as Sentinel Gap, flanked by the Sentinel Bluffs. Transportation in the area is primarily served by Wa-243 and Huntzinger Rd, which follow the river's course. Localized settlements including Wanapum Village, Schwana, and the landing at Levering provide evidence of the scattered residential and agricultural activity along the Wahluke Slope and the mouth of Lower Crab Creek.
