2013 Map of Horn Rapids Dam

About this map

Horn Rapids Dam stands as a focal point on the Yakima River at the southern edge of this modern survey. This desert landscape is defined by the sharp bend in the river known as The Horn and the broad expanse of Cold Creek Valley. The terrain is marked by significant restricted access infrastructure, including the Hanford Road Barricade and Wye Barricade, reflecting the proximity to the Hanford Site. A network of arterial roads like Wa-240, Oregon St, and Hanford Rd cut across the arid environment, connecting the river valley to the surrounding uplands. Local landmarks such as Cold Cr provide a sense of the hydrological features that shape this Benton County corridor.
