About this map

Camas Patch lies within a complex drainage system in central Washington, where the landscape transitions from the high elevations of Toppenish Ridge down to the low-lying Starvation Flats. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a terrain defined by the multiple branches of Dry Creek, including the North Fork Dry Creek, Middle Fork Dry Creek, and South Fork Dry Creek, which culminates at Dry Creek Falls.

A network of Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) roads, such as Bia RD 127 and Bia RD 144, provides the primary access through this remote area, connecting local landmarks like Whiskey Jim Flat and Wall Canyon. The map offers a contemporary view of land management and natural water features, including Fortyday Creek and White Fir Creek, highlighting the importance of seasonal hydrology in this high-desert environment.
