Uniontown: US 195 at MP 3.6

About location

Among the communities of southeastern Washington, Uniontown stands out for its setting amid the rolling grain country of the Palouse. U.S. Route 195 crosses this lightly settled corridor, linking the Lewiston, Idaho, area with Spokane and carrying regional traffic through Whitman County. The Palouse is defined by deep, wind-blown loess soils, shaped into rounded hills through long cultivation. Fields of wheat, pulses and other crops dominate land use, while farmsteads and shelterbelts punctuate the open ground. Uniontown is a useful reference point for understanding the working agricultural character of this part of Washington, where roads follow the folds of the hills rather than a dense urban grid.

The rolling, loess-covered hills of the Palouse define the setting of Uniontown — broad wheat fields and gently folded farmland shape daily life in this small southeastern Washington community. Founded in the late 19th century by German Catholic settlers, Uniontown retains a compact historic character not far from Pullman. St. Boniface Catholic Church, built in 1904, is the town’s best-known landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In Whitman County, the Palouse’s deep wind-deposited soils have supported grain farming for generations.

Washington
Region Washington

Washington’s terrain runs from Pacific coastal lowlands in the west to the dry Columbia Plateau in the east, with the Cascade Range creating a marked climatic divide. Central Washington lies on the plateau side of the Cascades, where the Columbia River has cut broad valleys and irrigation supports orchards and vineyards. The state also includes Puget Sound, the intricate marine inlet around Seattle, and the volcanic cone of Mount Rainier. Seattle’s Space Needle, built for the 1962 World’s Fair, remains one of its most recognisable landmarks. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Washington.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
