2011 Map of Karakul Hills

About this map

Karakul Hills define the rolling landscape of this rural Washington interior, where a sparse network of section roads connects isolated agricultural plots and water features. The settlement of Keystone sits in the northeast, positioned near a primary transportation corridor that cuts across the northern half of the sheet. The southern drainage area is dominated by the course of Cow Creek, which feeds into Cow Lake and the smaller Hallin Lake. The presence of the Cow Lake Dam indicates 21st-century water management in this arid environment, while seasonal flows such as Lugenbeal Creek provide further clues to the hydrology of the basin. Local-history researchers can trace family-named routes like N Durry Rd and N Carico Hills Rd as they navigate the distinct topography of the hills.
