About this map

The Univ of Idaho and the New Saint Andrews Coll anchor the eastern edge of this landscape, marking the transition from the collegiate atmosphere of Moscow into the agricultural expanses of the Palouse. Spanning the Washington-Idaho state line, the area is defined by the rolling hills between Pullman and its neighboring city. Key infrastructure like the Pullman/Moscow Regional Airport and the Stadium reflect the regional importance of these two university towns.

Beyond the urban centers, the map details a network of rural settlements and geographic features, including Garrison and Sunshine. The hydrology is dominated by the S Fork-Palouse River and Paradise Cr, which wind through the distinctive topography of Stratton Hollow. To the south, the elevation rises toward Bald Butte, overlooking a dense grid of named country roads such as Brown Rd and Whitman Rd that connect the high-plateau farms.
