2014 Map of Mud Spring

About this map

Boulder Park and the high plateaus of Douglas County define this landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the deeply incised drainages of the Columbia River basin. The settlement of Mud Spring serves as a central reference point in an area dominated by dryland farming and topographic relief. Large-scale geographic features like McNeil Canyon and Dutch Henry Draw illustrate the erosional patterns of the region, while smaller water sources such as Marion Hill Spring and Willow Spring mark critical points in the arid terrain. The map details a network of section-line roads including Mud Springs Rd NW and Christenson Rd NW, which support the scattered farmsteads and rural infrastructure. Wa-172 provides the primary transit corridor through the southern half of the quadrangle, connecting the remote draws and coulees.
