About this map

The vast expanse of Banks Lake and the Upper Grand Coulee dominate the northwestern corner of this landscape, reflecting a geography fundamentally reshaped by modern reclamation efforts. While the high plateau above the coulee is marked by an orderly grid of section lines and gravel-surfaced routes like Road 44 NE and Road 45 NE, the presence of numerous Spring and Well sites suggests the ongoing challenge of water management in this arid region of Grant County. A diagonal strike of the Burlington Northern railroad cuts through the southern flats, providing a vital industrial link between the scattered resource sites. Local landmarks such as Chase Draw and various excavations, including a Gravel Pit and several Borrow Pits, indicate a terrain utilized for both transportation infrastructure and geological extraction during the late 1960s.
