1948 Map of Priest Rapids

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Priest Rapids Lake dominates this mid-century landscape, a significant reservoir on the Columbia River that reshaped the local environment between the Wahluke Slope and the Umtanum Ridge. The map details the technical infrastructure of the era, including the Power House, a Fish Ladder, and a Fish Hatchery, alongside the large Priest Rapids Wildlife Recreation Area. To the west, the expansive Yakima Firing Center Military Reservation covers a terrain of deep drainages like Cow Canyon and Sourdough Canyon.
