Buckingham and the surrounding high desert plateau of Okanogan County are defined by a network of drainage draws and named summits in this 2011 survey. The landscape transitions from the Columbia River in the northwest toward the undulating elevations of Coleman Hill and the Chalk Hills. This area, primarily accessed by a grid of rural routes such as Peaceful Valley Rd NE and Coleman Hill Rd NE, illustrates a persistent pattern of dryland agriculture and scattered water resources. Vital water points for local ranching or historical settlement are marked by features like Ruben Blue Spring, Smith Spring, and Henton Lake. The terrain is punctuated by distinctive landmarks, including Stormy Point and Mary Jane Hill, which overlook the winding path of East Foster Creek as it cuts through the center of the quadrangle.
