About this map

Rufus Woods Lake on the Columbia River forms the dominant physical and political boundary of this landscape, separating Douglas and Okanogan counties. This 1981 edition illustrates the varied terrain of the High Plateau, from the depths of Box Canyon and the sharp turn at Gaviota Bend to the rising heights of Pearl Hill. The plateau surface is dotted with numerous small water bodies and springs, including Duley Lake, Murphy Lake, and Klinkhammer Lakes, indicating the importance of water management in this arid environment.

Evidence of historical settlement is found at Pearl (Site), once a high-country community now marked by its geographic site and nearby Storage Bins. The local road network, including Pearl Hill Road, connects isolated landmarks like Nilles Corner and the Substation to the surrounding basins. The map also delineates the Indian Reservation Boundary following the northern shoreline of the river, marking the edge of the Colville Indian Reservation.
