2023 Map of West of Washtucna

About this map

Sand Hills Coulee and Collier Coulee define the drainage patterns of this high desert landscape in eastern Adams County. The terrain is characterized by the scoured, linear depressions of the Channeled Scablands, evidenced by the oriented ridges and flats like Rattlesnake Flat. Agricultural infrastructure is prominent throughout, with the Baumann Farm Inc Airport serving as a central landmark for local aviation and farming operations. A grid of section-line roads, including Bauer Rd, Dewald Rd, and Marcellus Rd, provides access across the arid landscape. The map shows the intersection of natural geologic history and modern industrial dryland farming, where names like the Sand Hills reflect the specific topography of the region as recorded in the early twenty-first century.
