1979 Map of Sagebrush Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Sagebrush Ridge landscape in Yakima and Benton counties highlights a sophisticated 1970s irrigation network defined by the Roza Canal and numerous siphons and aqueducts. The terrain transitions from the high, arid ridge down toward the agricultural flats, where the Pacific Pump Lateral and a series of pumping stations manage the water flow. Named family roads such as Anderson Road, Snipes Road, and Evans Road divide the land into a grid, reflecting a history of ranching and farming infrastructure. Local landmarks like Anderson Ranch and the small settlement of McCreadie sit alongside utility features like the Grandview Substation and several storage bins. The presence of a Landing Strip and multiple Gravel Pits suggests a working rural economy focused on resource management and water distribution during this era of late-century development.
