2012 Map of Guthrie

About this map

The small settlement of Guthrie serves as the focal point of this King County landscape, situated near the confluence of the S Wichita River and various local drainages. The area is defined by a distinct ranching and water-management infrastructure, evidenced by a high density of named windmills scattered across the terrain. These include the Old Wooden Town Windmill, Salt Knobs Windmill, and Ralive Pen Windmill, which speak to the historical and ongoing necessity of tapping groundwater for livestock in this semi-arid region. North of the town center, Guthrie Lake provides a notable water feature, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is etched by the winding course of N Croton Cr and Brushy Cr. Transportation routes such as 6666 RD Road 6666 and Co Rd 415 link the isolated ranch lands to the street grid of the town, which is organized by numbered streets like 5th St and 14th St.
