1958 Map of Selah
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The Wenas Valley and Selah Valley converge in this mid-century portrait of Yakima County, showing a landscape defined by irrigation engineering and orchard development. The intricate network of the Selah Loop Canal and Cowiche Canal supports the agricultural growth of Selah and Gleed, while the Burlington Northern railroad corridor tracks the flow of goods along the Naches River. Local social life is anchored by the Wenas Valley Grange and Lower Naches Grange, reflecting a time when these agricultural organizations were central to community identity. Cultural history is explicitly marked by Petroglyphs near the Yakima River, while modern infrastructure appears at the Selah VABM 1762 Lookout Point and various radio transmission sites. The map also records early educational sites like the Lower Naches School and Yakima Valley Sch.
