2017 Map of Monument Hill

About this map

Monument Hill and the Beezley Hills dominate this section of the Columbia Basin in central Washington. The landscape is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and gravel roads that serve the high plateau, illustrating the intersection of the Public Land Survey System with modern rural infrastructure. Major thoroughfares such as Baird Springs Rd NW and Monument Hill Rd NW traverse the rolling terrain, which is largely divided into agricultural or rangeland sections within Townships t21n r24e and t22n r24e. The southern reaches of the map show a transition toward more frequent east-west travel routes like Martin Rd NW and Rd 13 NW. This 2017 survey provides a precise accounting of contemporary land use and elevation in a region shaped by both its volcanic geology and organized land division.
