About this map

Hangman Creek and its surrounding Hangman Valley dominate the eastern landscape of this portion of Spokane County, where the city of Spokane transitions into more rural terrain. The map documents the southwestern suburban expansion and specialized land use, including the Spokane Memorial Gardens and small airfields like Homeport Airport and Fowlers Northwest 40 Airport. Transport infrastructure is a central theme, with the BNSF Railway corridor and a dense grid of local roads serving established communities.

Established settlements like Marshall and Moran Prairie anchor different corners of the sheet, while Geiger Heights sits near the northwestern edge. The physical geography is defined by subtle but distinct features such as Rosa Butte and Ox Meadows, alongside the drainages of Marshall Cr and Minnie Cr. This detailed record captures the spatial relationship between the growing urban center and the varied agricultural and residential areas that define the region's character.
