2011 Map of Toppenish Mountain

About this map

Toppenish Mountain anchors this landscape in Yakima County, where the high terrain transitions into a complex network of drainages and irrigation infrastructure. The northern reaches of the quadrangle are marked by the presence of Saint Marys Cemetery, situated near a grid of local roads like Mission Rd and Shaker Church Rd. As the land drops toward the valley, the hydrology becomes the primary feature, with Toppenish Creek and Mill Creek winding through the territory alongside engineered water ways such as the Unit 2 Canal. To the south, the map tracks the flow of Seattle Creek and the seclusion of Olney Lake, while the Mt Adams Hwy serves as a primary north-south artery. The map's detail provides a record of land use on the Yakama Reservation, illustrating the intersection of natural watercourses and the developing road system of the early twenty-first century.
