1953 Map of Yakima East

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Yakima River serves as the central artery for this mid-century landscape, where industrial infrastructure and agricultural expansion meet. On the eastern bank, the sprawling Yakima Firing Center Military Reservation occupies the high ground of Umtanum Ridge, complete with drone strips and an abandoned landing field. In the valley below, the intricate irrigation network of the Roza Canal and Selah Canal supports a grid of rural homesteads and family farms, many connected by roads named for local families such as Laframboise Road and Beauchene Rd.
