2017 Map of Wheeler

About this map

The settlement of Mitchell and the vital industrial infrastructure of the East Low Canal define this 2017 landscape in Grant County. This portion of the Columbia Basin reveals a complex water management system essential to regional agriculture, highlighted by the Sand Coulee Syphon and the winding path of the canal through the arid terrain. The map captures the meeting point of natural geomorphology and human engineering, where deep depressions like Sand Coulee and Rocky Coulee are navigated by a network of rural roads such as Bacon Ln NE and Rd 10 NE. On the western edge, the Moses Lake Municipal Airport serves as a modern anchor, while Artesian Lake sits at the northern boundary, illustrating the varied water features of this high desert environment.
