About this map

Agricultural research and irrigation infrastructure dominate this landscape in Benton County, centered on the Washington State University Experimental Station. The terrain transitions from the elevated Sagebrush Ridge and Kelly Gulch in the north toward the fertile valley of the Yakima River in the south. A complex network of water management features, including a prominent Aqueduct, Canal segments, and numerous siphons, illustrates the engineering required to sustain cultivation in this arid region.
