1975 Map of Moscow West

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Moscow anchors the eastern edge of this 1975 orthophotoquad, where the city's residential and commercial grid transitions into the rolling agricultural lands of the Palouse. This aerial survey, produced in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, captures the landscape just as the Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport was serving as a vital link between the neighboring university towns. The drainage of Paradise Creek winds westward through the wheat fields, providing a natural corridor for the roads and infrastructure connecting the region. To the south, the prominence of Bald Butte stands out against the patchwork of tilled fields, illustrating the distinct topography that has long defined the borderlands between Washington and Idaho. This specific imagery provides a clear look at land use and farm boundaries before the late-twentieth-century expansion of the city's western outskirts.
