About this map

Sprague Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape where the borders of Lincoln and Adams counties meet. The settlement of Pifer sits along the northern shore, positioned where the transport corridor of modern highways and local routes like Bob Lee Rd intersect with the water. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including the westward-flowing Crab Creek and its tributaries, Lords Creek and Sheep Creek, which carve through the distinct scabland topography of the region.

Water remains the primary focal point of the area, with Clear Lake and Negro Creek situated to the northeast of the larger basin. Moving north into the interior, the map shows a quiet rural landscape tied together by family-named roads such as Kintschi Rd N, Doerschlag Rd E, and Ghers Rd. These routes provide access to smaller water bodies like Eastman Pond, reflecting a long-standing pattern of ranching and agricultural land use in this part of Washington.
