About this map

The Snake River corridor in Walla Walla County defines this landscape, where the waters of Lake Sacajawea meet the agricultural expanse of Eureka Flat. This early 1990s record of the region shows a transition between the river-focused infrastructure and the surrounding upland farms. Industrial and logistical markers such as a Landing Strip, several Gravel Pits, and a Grain Bin reflect a rural economy built on transport and resource extraction.

Small settlements like Slater and Le Grow are connected by a network of named thoroughfares including Adkins Road and Dodd Road. The map also captures the technical footprint of the era, from the Sun Harbor Drive development near the water to the Pipeline and multiple substations that supported regional utilities. This survey provides a clear look at the Walla Walla hinterland before further modern developments altered the balance between the river's edge and the high plains.
