2017 Map of Savage Island

About this map

Savage Island sits prominently in the Columbia River, marking a central point in this stretch of the river valley where the border of Franklin and Benton counties follows the main channel. The landscape on the eastern shore is defined by the broad Ringold Flat, a significant riverside terrace that hosts the Ringold Pond and the Ringold Springs Fish Pond. The map reveals an intricate network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure, most notably the W-B Five Wasteway which cuts through the terrain toward the river. Upland from the water, the plateau is partitioned by rural routes such as Basin Hill Rd and Mountain Vista Rd, supporting local aviation at the Green Acres Airport. This survey provides a clear view of the modern agricultural and hydrological management of the Hanford Reach area.
