1965 Map of Poisel Butte NW

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Satus Creek and Logy Creek converge in this high-desert landscape of Yakima County, defining a topography of steep draws and prominent ridges. The 1965 field check reveals a sparse settlement pattern dominated by grazing and tribal lands, anchored by the enigmatic Wasteland location and several established Corral sites along the watercourses. The presence of the Menninick Cem and Smina Cem provides specific genealogical touchpoints for the Yakama Reservation area, while the network of unpaved routes like Dry Creek Road and Pine Springs Road illustrates the era's reliance on rugged access trails. Rising above the valley, Poisel Butte serves as the dominant landmark, overlooking a terrain punctuated by isolated water sources such as Seep and Spring.
