About this map

Garfield and its surrounding agricultural landscape in the Palouse region are defined by a network of small settlements and seasonal watercourses. The town of Garfield itself is situated in the southeastern corner, where the Garfield Cem and a grid of streets like W Adams St and W Union St mark the center of local life. To the north and west, the map details the rural distribution of hamlets including Belmont, Robinson, Sokulk, and Eden.

Surface water is sparse, primarily consisting of creeks such as Pine Cr, McCoy Cr, and Silver Cr that carve through the undulating hills. A dense network of rural roads, often named after local families such as Hume Rd, Auvil Rd, and Stan Pfaff Rd, connects these isolated communities and farmsteads. This map documents the persistent agricultural footprint of Whitman County, showing how the landscape is divided into townships such as t18n r45e.
