2017 Map of Sims Corner

About this map

Sims Corner serves as the focal point for this high-plateau region of Central Washington, situated at the intersection of a vast network of section roads. The landscape is defined by the dramatic descent into the Grand Coulee at the southeastern edge of the quadrangle, where the Douglas Co and Grant Co line meets the waters of Banks Lake. This area reflects a mid-century irrigation and agricultural legacy, evidenced by several water features scattered across the terrain, including Horse Lake, Ludtke Lake, and the specifically developed Sims Corner Reservoir. The grid-like road system, featuring routes like Leahy Rd S and 10th Rd NE, underscores the organized land management and ranching character of the territory during this era.
