Basalt front yard


The eastern side of Washington state features two prominent, and very different, landscapes. The northeast corner from Spokane northward is heavily forested with beautiful valleys and streams. The southwest side beyond the heavily basalted area is nearly treeless and composed of rolling hills. It is great wheat growing country known as the palouse. This shot shows the transition area which has outcroppings of basalt, but also flat farmland free of basalt. Those who build in and around the basalt simply make the best of unmovable rocky masses.
