About this map

Creston and the settlement of Sherman anchor this Lincoln County landscape, showing the town layouts and the rural road network that defines the region. The northern boundary is shaped by the expansive waters of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake, where Moonshine Bay meets the dramatic topography of Jump Canyon. This high-desert terrain is marked by seasonal drainages and draws, such as Sage Hen Draw and Crazy Run, which reflect the local character of the open country.

Water management is evident through features like Hansen Dam on Goose Creek, providing essential infrastructure for the surrounding agricultural lands. The map traces numerous local routes, including Stigenwalt Rd E and Robertson Rd E, which connect isolated homesteads and ranch lands to the primary corridors. From the shorelines of the Columbia River reservoir to the quiet grid of Creston’s streets, the survey captures the balance between human settlement and the vast, arid reaches of eastern Washington.
