1954 Map of Beverly NE

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Frenchman Hills dominate the northern terrain of this Grant County landscape, providing a natural barrier between the higher ridges and the descending Royal Slope to the south. The 1954 field check by the USGS captured a transitional moment for the region's agricultural infrastructure, most notably with the presence of the West Canal cutting across the northern reaches and a major roadway marked as Under Construction spanning the southern sections. These features illustrate the mid-century transformation of the arid Washington interior into a managed irrigation landscape. Local travel of the era relied on a network of Jeep Trails and standard Trails that navigated the dips of Low Gap and Low Gap Pass, while natural drainage was defined by the winding path of Sand Hollow.
