2013 Map of Corfu

About this map

The small settlement of Corfu sits at the base of the dramatic Saddle Mountains, marking a point where the rugged basalt terrain of central Washington meets the managed agricultural landscape of the Columbia Basin. This 2013 survey reveals the complex drainage patterns of Lower Crab Cr as it meanders through the coulee floor, contrasted against the rigid grid of county roads like Road A SE and Road B SE. To the south, the massive incline of the Wahluke Slope rises from the valley, a geological feature that dominates the southern half of the quadrangle. The map captures the infrastructure of water management and transportation, including the White Bluffs Wasteway and Wa-26, providing a clear look at how human irrigation and highway networks have adapted to the prehistoric flood-carved channels of the region.
