2011 Map of Wilson Creek NW

About this map

Crab Creek winds through the southern portion of this Grant County landscape, carving a prominent valley that dictates the local infrastructure and settlement patterns. The community of Wilson Creek sits at the eastern edge of the quadrangle, where the creek's drainage meets the intersection of local routes like Lincoln Rd and 24-Ne RD. This area shows the distinct transition from the high, plateau-like terrain to the north—marked by a grid of rural roads such as 26 Northeast Rd—to the lower riparian corridor. To the west, the presence of Billy Clapp Lake and Brook Lake highlights the significant water management and geological features that define this part of the Washington interior. These water bodies, situated amidst the dramatic elevation changes, provide a stark contrast to the surrounding agricultural and range lands. The map also identifies the smaller settlement area of West Wilson Creek, illustrating the dispersed nature of habitation in this eastern Washington canyon country.
