Ellensburg anchors the southern edge of this map, showcasing the urban transition into the fertile Kittitas Valley. The city's northern reaches are dominated by the Central Washington University campus and a dense grid of residential streets. Just beyond the city limits, a complex network of irrigation infrastructure including the North Branch Canal, Ellensburg Water Canal, and W Side Canal illustrates the intensive water management required for regional agriculture. To the north, the landscape opens into canyons and creeks, with Reecer Creek and Currier Creek flowing south toward the Yakima River. This 2017 study captures the modern footprints of local landmarks like Bowers Field and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery, while rural roads such as Hungry Junction Road and Brick Mill Road maintain the historical transport patterns of the surrounding farmland.
