2020 Map of Mud Spring

About this map

Mud Spring and the upland plateau of Douglas County define this part of central Washington. The landscape is characterized by a high-desert terrain where vital water sources like Marion Hill Spring and Willow Spring break the dry expanses. The map reveals a structured grid of agricultural and access roads, including Wolf Holler Rd and Mc Neil Canyon Rd NW, which traverse the high ground near Boulder Park. This area, organized under t27n r24e and t26n r24e of the Public Land Survey System, shows how modern land management overlays the natural drainage of W Foster Cr. The concentration of named springs suggests the historical importance of these specific locations for ranching and survival in an otherwise arid environment.
