About this map

La Crosse serves as the focal point of this eastern Washington landscape, where the Union Pacific railroad cuts across the northern terrain. The region's agricultural character is clearly defined by several Grain Elevators and clusters of Storage Bins that dot the countryside, indicating a productive grain-growing economy in the early 1980s. Waterways like Union Flat Creek, Willow Creek, and Mud Flat Creek meander through the hills, providing natural drainage for the surrounding farmland. Small named locales such as Wasselman and Wies appear alongside evidence of local infrastructure, including a Landing Strip and industrial features like a Gravel Pit and Borrow Pit. The map captures a specific moment in the rural development of Whitman County, preserving the placement of rural homesteads and transport links that supported the community's primary industries.
