About this map

The Klickitat River carves a deep path through the center of this landscape, anchoring the settlement patterns of Klickitat and Pitt. This 2014 survey illustrates the transition from the high, open terrain of The Plateau and High Prairie down into the narrow river corridors. Historical industry and recreation are evident in labels such as Woodruff Mill and Shippeys Meadows, while the complex topography is defined by numerous drainages like Wahkiaous Canyon and Logging Camp Canyon.

Transportation routes, including Wa-142 and Klickitat Appleton Rd, follow the natural contours of the land, connecting the river valley to higher elevations like Fisher Hill and Long Butte. The map provides a detailed view of the interaction between the river's path and the surrounding canyons, such as Snyder Canyon and Skookum Canyon, showcasing a region defined by its significant elevation changes and concentrated valley communities.
