About this map

The Columbia River carves a deep valley through this landscape, serving as the primary geographical and economic axis between Chelan and Chelan Falls. The river's influence is evident in the cluster of infrastructure along its banks, from the Chelan State Fish Hatchery to the recreational space at Beebe Bridge Park. Settlement patterns follow the irrigation and transportation corridors, with orchards and residential areas concentrated near Beebe and the elevated plains of Howard Flats.

Upland features such as Deer Mountain and Chelan Hill overlook a network of tributary canyons including McNeil Canyon and Farnham Canyon. The presence of Hugo Siding on the rail line and the Chelan Municipal Airport near the northern edge highlights the area's role as a regional transit point. For those studying the local history of Chelan County, the map provides detailed placement of family-named springs and landmarks like Riverview Cemetery, which sits on the heights above the Chelan River.
