1964 Map of Ewan

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Ewan sits at the northern edge of this mid-1960s landscape, serving as a hub where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad follows the winding path of Cottonwood Creek. The terrain is defined by the deep incisions of the Palouse region, where Kamiache Creek and Downing Creek have carved distinct drainage patterns into the plateau. To the south, the Union Pacific line tracks alongside East Fork Downing Creek, illustrating the heavy reliance on these natural corridors for transcontinental rail transport. Small-scale human activity is visible through scattered landmarks such as the Schierman farmstead, a solitary Landing Strip, and a Gravel Pit. The map captures a moment in the mid-century agricultural economy before the modernization of the Palouse R basin, showing the distribution of water resources like Stevens Lake and the Pleasant Valley Creek drainage within Pleasant Valley.
