About this map

Weber occupies the heart of this landscape along the border of Grant and Adams County, where the terrain is defined by the deep, winding channels of Farrier Coulee, Weber Coulee, and Bauer Coulee. These geological depressions contrast with the engineered precision of the East Low Canal, which snakes through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The map documents a predominantly agricultural grid, segmented by long-established rural routes like Leisle Rd, Franz Rd, and Sackman Rd.

The infrastructure revealed here showcases the 20th-century irrigation efforts that transformed the high desert of Central Washington. The path of the East Low Canal signifies the reach of the Columbia Basin Project, bringing water to a region historically characterized by its dry coulees. Researchers can trace the intersection of modern interstate travel with older section-line roads such as Koch Rd and W Heineman Rd, which continue to serve the dispersed homesteads and farms of this rural corridor.
