1958 Map of White Swan

About this map

The Yakima Indian Reservation community of White Swan serves as a hub of activity in this 1950s landscape, where the transition from the arid hills to irrigated valley floor is clearly defined. Irrigation infrastructure, including the Highline Canal and several siphons, supports the local agricultural economy and settlements like Rupple. The map captures the social fabric of the era through features like the Rodeo Grounds, Community Hall, and High School, alongside the Ranger Sta and St Marys Cem.
