About this map

Lake Umatilla and the Columbia River dominate the southern margin of this landscape, defining the state border between Washington and Oregon. The terrain is characterized by a series of deep drainage systems that carve through the high plateaus of Klickitat County, including Big Horn Canyon, Juniper Canyon, and the prominent Wood Gulch. These natural features dictate the local transportation network, with routes like Middle Rd and East Rd following the high ridges between the canyons.

Agricultural and ranching activity is evidenced by naming conventions across the flats and draws, such as Hurlburt Flats and White Draw. Infrastructure supporting the river-adjacent economy is visible near the shoreline, where Roosevelt-Elevator Rd and Roosevelt Ave provide access to the water's edge. Seasonal waterways like Coyote Cr and Pine Cr further illustrate the complex hydrography that has shaped this part of the Pacific Northwest.
