1964 Map of Ewan

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Ewan sits at the northern edge of this Whitman County landscape, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad tracks follow the winding course of Cottonwood Creek. The map documents a rural transition point in the mid-1960s, noting the dual identity of Willada (Lancaster PO) further south along the Union Pacific line. This intersection of rail transport and small-town post offices reflects the agrarian commerce typical of the Palouse region. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and drainages, including Downing Creek and Kamiache Creek, which eventually give way to the Palouse R at the southern boundary. Distinctive landmarks such as the Schierman summit and a remote Landing Strip appear alongside local water sources like Stevens Lake, providing a clear record of land use and water management in this eastern Washington wheat-growing territory.
