2011 Map of Honn Lakes

About this map

Rock Creek flows southward through this corner of Whitman County, carving a path toward its confluence with the Palouse River. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from the prominent Towell Falls to a series of distinct upland bodies such as Lake Sixteen and the cluster of Winn Lakes. This area retains a largely open character, where terrain features like Texas Draw and Bull Town are connected by a network of rural routes, including Endicott Rd and E Benge Winona Rd. Numerous springs, such as Rollie Springs and Lehrbas Spring, suggest the historical importance of reliable water in this part of Washington's inland territory. Researchers will find a landscape that remains tied to its natural hydrology, with family-named features like Hergert Lake and Darden Pond marking the transition between the rolling uplands and the river valley.
