About this map

The Grande Ronde River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Asotin County, defining a landscape of high ridges and narrow canyons. Near the river's bend, the settlement of Mountain View sits atop the plateau, anchored by the Mountain View Cemetery and the nearby Autrey Cemetery. This area represents a classic inland Northwest transition between high-country ranching and river-bottom transport, where landmarks like Hanson Ferry once provided essential crossings.

Steep terrain features dominate the northern and central portions of the map, including Morrow Ridge, Sawtooth Ridge, and Anatone Butte. Numerous springs, such as Seven Sisters Spring and Hostetler Spring, emerge from the draws to feed tributaries like Indian Tom Creek and Cottonwood Creek. The presence of the R Barber Ranch and various ridge roads suggest a continued reliance on the land for grazing and timber access in this isolated stretch of Washington.
