About this map

Lincoln stands on the southern shore of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake, a landscape where high-plateau prairies drop sharply into a series of deep drainage features. This 2020 edition reveals the intersection of the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area with the agricultural and ranching lands of the interior. The terrain is defined by dramatic erosion patterns, including Halverson Canyon, Redwine Canyon, and Underwood Canyon, which all cut toward the Columbia River basin.

South of the lake, Bachelor Prairie represents the flatter, high-elevation lands accessible by a network of rural routes like Bachelor Prairie Rd E and Miles Creston Rd. The map documents the local hydrology of the region, from the winding path of Welch Cr to the sheltered waters of Welch Creek Cove. This area reflects a modern balance between seasonal recreation near the water and long-established agricultural use in the surrounding canyons and draws.
