About this map

Spokane and its southwestern reaches are defined by the winding course of Hangman Creek, which carves through the terrain toward the heart of the city. This 2020 landscape illustrates the transition from the dense urban street grid of neighborhoods like Moran Prairie to the rural expanses and scattered aviation facilities of the plateau. Several small airfields, including Homeport Airport and Ox Meadows Airport, serve the area, while the BNSF Railway tracks trace a vital transportation corridor through the town of Marshall.

South of the residential development at Geiger Heights, the map reveals a varied topography rising toward Rosa Butte and the broader Hangman Valley. Local watercourses like Marshall Creek and Minnie Creek drain the western hills, supporting a mix of open land and established community sites like the Spokane Memorial Gardens. This survey provides a modern look at the interface between the growing city and the surrounding natural landmarks of Spokane County.
