About this map

Alpowa Ridge and Valentine Ridge dominate this high-relief landscape along the border of Asotin and Garfield Counties. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainage systems, including Davis Canyon and numerous gulches such as Megginson Gulch, Unfried Gulch, and Clayton Gulch. These natural corridors dictate the path of local infrastructure, where winding routes like Howell Grade Rd and Valentine Ridge Rd navigate the steep elevation changes.

Water remains a central element of the geography, with Alpowa Cr and Pow Wah Kee Cr cutting through the southern half of the quadrangle. Smaller features like Warm Springs and Deadman Cr are tucked into the northern folds of the hills. Named landmarks like Knotgrass Ridge and Flerchinger Ridge provide clear evidence of the long-standing ranching and agricultural heritage of this corner of southeastern Washington.
