1958 Map of Medicine Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Medicine Valley dominates this landscape, where the convergence of Simcoe Creek and Medicine Creek shapes the local geography. The map provides a look at Yakima County in the mid-20th century, with significant updates from the mid-1980s that reveal the area's rural development. Genealogical interests are represented by Yesmowit Cemetery and another unnamed Cemetery located south of Medicine Valley Road. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by numerous tributaries, including Rattlesnake Creek flowing through Hog Canyon and the winding Wahtum Creek to the south. Human infrastructure is concentrated along roads like West White Swan Road, featuring the White Swan Substation and Hitchcock Airstrip, illustrating the intersection of utility and aviation in this part of Washington.
