2014 Map of Wells Dam

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

Wells Dam spans the Columbia River at the western edge of this 2014 survey, where the river meets the southern reach of Lake Pateros. The surrounding Douglas County landscape is a high plateau marked by named depressions and rises, including Skeleton Canyon and the prominent Dyer Hill. Small settlements such as Dyer and Howard are connected by a network of rural roads like Dyer Hill Rd NW and Tanneburg Oil, reflecting the agricultural and ranching character of the region. The geography is punctuated by isolated water sources like Ford Spring and Pattie Big Spring, which remain vital landmarks in this arid terrain. Topographical features like Sourdough Flats and Boulder Park indicate the varying land use, from flat grazing areas to more complex geological formations like The Horseshoe and Cold Springs Basin.
