2020 Map of Foster Coulee

About this map

Tower Rock stands as a prominent landmark in this corner of Douglas County, overseeing a landscape defined by the drainage of E Foster Cr. The area is marked by a network of small upland bodies of water, including Elbow Lake, Buck Lake, and Clear Lake, which suggest the depression-rich geology of the Columbia Plateau. Human impact on the hydrology is evident through infrastructure like Perry Dam Number One and Perry Dam Number Two, likely serving agricultural or livestock needs in this dry environment. The cadastral grid is strictly maintained by rural routes such as Rogers Rd NE and RD 26 Ne, illustrating the systematic division of land for ranching or farming. This survey captures the intersection of natural basaltic terrain and the pragmatic water management required for life in the Washington interior.
