The Jericho settlement site sits at the northern base of the Saddle Mountains, a region defined by dramatic elevation changes in central Washington. This 2017 survey details the complex terrain where the steep northern face of Sentinel Mtn drops toward the low-lying basin of Lower Crab Creek. The landscape transition is marked by a network of rural routes, including the historic Milwaukee Rd corridor and local paths such as Rd 17 Sw. To the south, the land levels out across the Wahluke Slope, an area known for its unique agricultural and geological profile. Hydrological features like Sand Hollow Lake and Merry Lake appear alongside Wilson Spring, providing critical water points in this arid environment. The map offers a clear view of the township and range boundaries, specifically t16n r24e and t15n r24e, reflecting the structured land management of the Columbia Basin.
