1968 Map of Withrow

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Withrow serves as the central hub of this high-plateau landscape in Douglas County, defined by its reliance on the Burlington Northern railroad and grain storage. The map illustrates a community built around dryland agriculture, highlighted by the prominent Grain Elevator and various Storage Bins situated near the rail line. The presence of several Cisterns and a Well underscores the critical importance of water management in this arid region of Washington. Local history is anchored at the Happy Home Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle, while the natural drainage of Dutch Henry Draw cuts through the northern and eastern sections. Industrial activity is visible through a series of Gravel Pits and Borrow Pits, which likely supported the maintenance of the transportation corridor and local infrastructure during this era of late 1960s development.
