1983 Map of Connell
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Connell serves as a central hub in this high-desert landscape, where the agricultural corridors of the Washtucna Coulee and Esquatzel Coulee meet the iron rails of the Burlington Northern and Union Pacific railroads. The map documents a complex network of dry coulees and named prairies, including Kansas Prairie and Michigan Prairie, which define the terrain of the Columbia Basin. To the southeast, the geography shifts dramatically at the Snake River, where the Lower Monumental Dam has created Lake Herbert G West. This 1980s-era survey captures the transition from small rail-side settlements like Hatton and Benge to the monumental engineering of the river's dams and the iconic Palouse Falls, illustrating how water management and rail transportation shaped Eastern Washington's development.
