1943 Map of Boylston

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad carves a winding path through this portion of Kittitas County, serving high-desert outposts like Boylston, Cheviot, and Doris. The landscape is defined by the massive uplift of the Saddle Mountains and the Boylston Mts, where numerous seasonal drainages such as Johnson Creek and Hanson Creek have etched deep coulees into the terrain. In the northeast corner, the preserve at Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park protects unique geological specimens, while landmarks like Hole in the Wall and Hells Kitchen suggest a challenging, arid environment. Remote springs, including Poison Spr and Lone Star Spr, provide the only consistent water sources away from the primary creeks. The presence of Schnebly Road and several benchmarked summits indicates a surveyed wilderness transitioning toward the Columbia River corridor.
