1954 Map of Deep Creek

About this map

Fairchild Air Force Base dominates the southeastern corner of this landscape, reflecting the mid-century military expansion in eastern Washington. The surrounding terrain is defined by the broad agricultural expanses of Indian Prairie and Greenwood Prairie, which are carved by the distinct drainage systems of Deep Creek and Coulee-Hite Creek. This era shows a community structured around local institutions, featuring the Spring Hill Grange and educational sites like the Indian Prairie School and Blair Sch. Transport and infrastructure are represented by the Pacific Highway and the Great Northern Pipe Line, which traverse the prairie alongside numerous section-line roads such as Northern Road and Espanola Road. A Fish Hatchery along the creek and the Greenwood Prairie Cem offer specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing early twentieth-century land use.
