2023 Map of Piersol Hills

About this map

Piersol Hills rises as a prominent landmark in this section of the Columbia Plateau, where the high desert landscape is deeply carved by the glacial legacies of the Ice Age. The map reveals the dramatic path of Moses Coulee, a significant drainage feature that dominates the southern half of the quadrangle. High-country water features like Rummel Lake and the drainage of Middle Foster Creek punctuate the upland terrain, illustrating the complex hydrology of Douglas County. The rectilinear grid of rural routes, such as RD 14 Ne and the lengthy Leahy-Mansfield-Mayfield Rd NE, highlights the agricultural and ranching infrastructure that spans these elevations. Distinctive geologic formations including Hook Hills, Wheeler Hills, and the singular Yeager Rock provide critical navigational points for local residents and land managers alike.
