2020 Map of Dot

About this map

Dot occupies a high-elevation plateau in the eastern Klickitat County uplands, where the landscape is defined by deep incisions like Old Lady Canyon and Glass Canyon. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparsely populated agricultural and ranching district where movement is dictated by a network of rural roads such as Dot Rd, Ward Rd, and Schrantz Rd. The presence of Old Spring and drainage systems like White Cr and Wood Cr highlight the importance of water management in this high-desert environment. To the south, the path of Old Hwy 8 snakes through the terrain, marking the corridor for regional transit across the plateau. The map captures a transition between the northern gulches, such as Wood Gulch, and the complex topography of the south, providing a clear record of the area's property boundaries and land use patterns at the start of the decade.
