1978 Map of Lyle

About this map

The Columbia River serves as a massive geographic divider in this late 1970s survey, separating the shores of Washington and Oregon. On the northern bank, the settlement of Lyle sits at the mouth of the Klickitat River, where the Burlington Northern railroad tracks hug the shoreline. This area is characterized by dramatic elevation changes, from the river-level basins of Chamberlain Lake to the heights of Tracy Hill and Rocky Flat.
