1967 Map of Fourmile Hill

About this map

Finney sits in the northwest reaches of this King County landscape, a region defined by the drainage networks of the Middle Fork Wichita River and the South Wichita River. The topography is dominated by the prominent rise of Fourmile Hill and an extensive system of named windmills that reveal the complex livestock infrastructure of the era. From the Bison Pen Windmills to the West Horse Pasture Windmill, these water sources were vital to the local ranching economy.
