1981 Map of Dusty

About this map

Agricultural infrastructure and watercourses define this Whitman County landscape near the settlement of Dusty. In the early 1980s, the region was characterized by its dispersed farming operations, marked by numerous Storage Bins and a prominent Grain Elevator situated along the lower creeks. The hydrological network is dominated by the winding course of Union Flat Creek in the north and the confluence of Alkali Flat Creek and Little Alkali Flat Creek to the south. A localized Landing Strip near the main crossroads indicates the reliance on aerial transport for agricultural or private use in this wheat-growing territory. Other geographic landmarks including Willow Creek and Rock Spring Gulch illustrate the drainage patterns of the Palouse hills, while a Water Tank and several Borrow Pits point to the practical maintenance of local rural infrastructure.
