2013 Map of Doris

About this map

The Saddle Mountains dominate this Kittitas County landscape, where elevation shifts define the drainage patterns of the high desert. At the northern edge of this 2013 survey, the small settlements of Doris and Rye sit near the base of these ridges, marking quiet points of human activity in an area otherwise characterized by vast topographic relief. The map reveals how the land is dissected by seasonal watercourses, with Johnson Cr flowing in the north while Hanson Cr and Cottonwood Cr carve through the southern sections. This modern digital survey maintains the traditional township and range divisions, such as t16n r22e and t15n r22e, which provide a reliable grid for tracing land ownership and early 21st-century infrastructure across the arid terrain of central Washington.
