About this map

Larson Air Force Base dominates the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, reflecting the significant military footprint in Grant County during the Cold War. The town of Moses Lake serves as the regional hub, characterized by the intricate reach of its namesake water body with Parker Horn, Pelican Horn, and Lewis Horn branching into the developing residential and commercial areas. The southern portion of the map reveals the massive expanse of the Potholes Reservoir and its associated Sand Dunes, part of the Columbia Basin Project's irrigation infrastructure.
