2020 Map of The Cottonwoods

About this map

Umtanum Ridge dominates the northern reaches of this central Washington landscape, where the border between Kittitas and Yakima counties cuts across high, dry terrain. The small settlement of The Cottonwoods sits at the junction of Roza Creek Rd and Old Durr Rd, representing a sparse residential footprint in an area otherwise defined by water management and transit. The Longmire Wenas Canal follows the lower elevations near Wenas Cr, illustrating the importance of irrigation in this region. Private infrastructure like the Shangri-La Airport and utility-linked corridors such as Bell Telephone Rd weave through the hills, while isolated water sources including Oasis Spring and Wright Spring provide critical points of interest in the draws of Kelley Hollow.
