About this map

Union Flat Creek snakes through the center of this Whitman County landscape, defining the local geography alongside several other deeply incised drainages like Rebel Flat Creek and Alkali Flat Creek. The small settlement of Wilcox sits at a junction of these watercourses, while further north, the Union Pacific rail line cuts across the terrain near Mockonema. This 1960s survey illustrates a region shaped by both agriculture and transportation, evidenced by the Palouse Empire Fairgrounds and the County Memorial Airport near the northern boundary. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies specific community landmarks such as the Onecho Ch and the adjacent Onecho Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The presence of a Gaging Station on the creek and various labeled springs underscore the importance of water management in this rolling Palouse country.
