1951 Map of Corral Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Hanford Works (A. E. C.) dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century landscape, illustrating the restricted government presence in the Cold Creek Valley. This high desert terrain is defined by the steep elevation changes of the Rattlesnake Hills and Sagebrush Ridge, which transition south toward the agricultural developments along the Yakima River. Isolated rural life is evident in the scattered homesteads like Snively Ranch and Benson Ranch, alongside the Rattlesnake Grange. To the south, irrigation infrastructure including the Sunnyside Canal and the Roza Canal supports the Irrigation Experiment Station, marking the region's shift toward intensive cultivation. The Northern Pacific railroad tracks and the settlement at Chaffee (Old Glen) anchor the transport corridor at the base of Corral Canyon.
