1953 Map of Ginkgo

About this map

Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park dominates the eastern edge of this mid-century survey, bordering the Columbia River along the Kittitas and Grant county line. The landscape is defined by the dramatic drainage patterns of the high desert, characterized by deep incisions like Schnebly Coulee and Rocky Coulee that cut through the basalt plateaus. These coulees reveal the geological history of the region, leading down toward the river's edge where features like Hells Kitchen and Hole in the Wall mark the distinct shoreline topography.
