2017 Map of Goodnoe Hills

About this map

Goodnoe Hills and its surrounding high plateau are defined by a series of dramatic drainages and ridges in Klickitat County. The landscape is carved by seasonal waterways including Rock Creek, White Creek, and Squaw Creek, which flow through steep depressions like Glass Canyon. Settlement in this era is concentrated along the southern corridor, where the legacy of earlier transportation is visible in names like Old Hwy 8. The map documents a network of rural roads that follow the contours of the land and section lines, such as Chamberlain Goodnoe Rd and Hoctor Rd. High points such as Harrison Ridge overlook the complex system of coulees and canyons, illustrating the topographical transition from the high hills down toward the Columbia River basin. This survey provides a clear view of land divisions and property access routes in a remote portion of southern Washington.
