1977 Map of Horn Rapids Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Hanford Works dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, its restricted area marked by numerous test wells and security checkpoints like the Wye Barricade. This 1970s survey captures a starkly industrial and military-managed environment where the arid expanse of the Cold Creek Valley meets the technological infrastructure of the nuclear age. To the south, the Yakima River provides a sharp contrast, winding past Horn Rapids Park and the Horn Rapids Dam.
