About this map

Scooteney Reservoir and a network of smaller basins dominate this high desert landscape along the border of Adams Co and Franklin Co. The 2013 survey illustrates a highly managed water system essential for regional agriculture, characterized by named bodies such as Snakebite Reservoir, Powerline Reservoir, and the Camp Lakes chain. These reservoirs and the surrounding irrigation infrastructure have transformed the arid terrain of Eastern Washington into a productive agricultural zone.

Transportation is defined by the corridor of Wa-17 and a grid of rural roads like S Scooteney Rd and Pioneer Rd, which provide access to the various lakes and recreational areas. The presence of Eagle Lakes in the northwest and Chance Lake to the east highlights the scattered nature of these water features across the townships. This map offers a clear look at the man-made hydrology and local road network that supports the community near the reservoir.
