About this map

Ephrata anchors the southwestern portion of this landscape, where the urban grid meets the agricultural expansion of central Washington. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Rocky Ford Creek, which flows south toward the larger wetlands and irrigation networks characteristic of the region. To the north, the settlement of Grant Orchards and the community at Lakeview Park reflect a history of land development tied to the water resources of the Columbia Basin.

A network of rural routes, including Trout Lodge Rd and Drumheller Rd, provides access to the surrounding plateaus and drainage basins. The survey captures a modern view of the local infrastructure, showing the relationship between the established city center and the outlying agricultural tracts. Water remains the primary geographical driver here, seen in the path of Crab Cr and the complex hydrography that has shaped the local economy and settlement patterns for decades.
