About this map

Badger Mtn and Moses Stool dominate this section of the high Columbia River plateau, where the landscape is defined by deep drainages and steep access routes. The map detail highlights the engineered descent of the Rock Island Grade and Keane Grade, which navigate the dramatic elevation changes characteristic of this region. These historical paths, along with a grid of rural roads like Shinn Rd SW and Roth Rd SW, illustrate the late 20th-century land management and agricultural surveying across Douglas County.

Water sources are vital markers in this semi-arid environment, with Robinson Spring and Evelyn Spring appearing alongside ephemeral flows in Sutherland Canyon and Bevington Canyon. The drainage of Rock Island Cr serves as the primary topographic spine of the area. This 2014 edition documents the intersection of public land survey systems (T23N and T22N) with the practical realities of ranching and utility access roads in Washington’s central highlands.
