About this map

Camas Prairie and Panakanic Prairie dominate this landscape within the Conboy Lake National Wildlife Refuge, where a complex network of wetlands and seasonal watercourses like Outlet Creek and Holmes Creek define the geography. The presence of Mount Adams Cem and the Dunkard Graveyard suggests a long history of settlement in this part of Klickitat County, even as large portions are now dedicated to conservation.

Transport routes such as the B Z Glenwood Hwy and Trout Lake Hwy connect the rural reaches, while the terrain transitions sharply into the dramatic Medley Canyon and Dead Canyon to the east. Notable water sources like Willard Spring and the Gold Springs Ditch indicate the historical importance of water management for the prairie lands. To the south, Rattlesnake Creek winds through the base of The Plateau, illustrating the varied topography between the open flats and the canyon country.
