2014 Map of Foster Coulee

About this map

Foster Coulee cuts through the high desert plateau of Douglas County, defining the drainage patterns and travel routes of this rural landscape. The topography is dominated by the steep elevation changes of the coulee and the prominent Tower Rock standing near the western edge of the quadrangle. Water management and natural reservoirs are central to the area, evidenced by Buck Lake and Clear Lake in the north, alongside the infrastructure of Perry Dam Number One and Perry Dam Number Two. A network of rural roads, including Leahy Rd S and Wa-174, follows the natural contours of the land, connecting the various townships and ranges. Small watercourses like E Foster Cr traverse the lower elevations, highlighting the intricate hydrology that supports this high-country environment.
