2013 Map of Kittitas

About this map

The town of Kittitas serves as the hub of this agricultural landscape in the central portion of the Kittitas Valley. The terrain transitions from the irrigated flats of the valley floor to the rising slopes of Vanderbilt Gap in the south, where the Yakima River cuts through the corner of the survey. The map reveals an intricate network of water management features essential to local farming, including the Wipple Wasteway, Turbine Ditch, and Pump Ditch. Numerous private landing strips, such as D Farms Airport, Hillcrest Farms Airport, and Beiter Airport, are scattered among the farmsteads, reflecting the large-scale aerial needs of modern ranching and agriculture. The small settlement of Regal and the landmark Denmark Hall provide further points of reference within this rural grid of numbered roads and irrigation canals.
