2017 Map of La Crosse East

About this map

Lacrosse sits at the western edge of this agricultural landscape in Whitman County, where the Palouse hills are deeply incised by the drainages of Union Flat Creek and Willow Creek. The topography is defined by high, winding ridges and draws, revealing a complex network of rural access roads that follow the natural contours of the land. Key transit corridors like Hay-Lacrosse Rd and Winona S Rd connect the town to outlying farmsteads and specialized locations such as Lester Camp Rd and Cemetary Rd. The map illustrates a drainage pattern focused on the southern flow of Mud Flat Creek, reflecting the importance of water management in this dryland wheat region. This 2017 survey details the enduring cadastral boundaries of Townships 15 and 16 North, marking the persistence of early land divisions in modern Washington.
