2013 Map of Turner

About this map

The Tucannon River winds through this section of Washington where the Columbia and Garfield county lines meet. The landscape is defined by the significant elevation changes between the Pataha Valley to the north and the deep incisions of Dry Hollow and Whetstone Hollow. Small agricultural communities like Turner and Covello serve as focal points for the surrounding rural area, connected by a network of local routes including Covello Rd and Tucannon Rd. Genealogists may find interest in the documented locations of the Turner Cem and Covello Cem, which sit near their respective namesake settlements. To the east, the settlement of Marengo overlooks the river valley, marking a transition in the local topography near where Pataha Cr cuts through the northeast corner of the quadrangle.
