Banks Lake in Grant and Douglas Counties, Washington
This lake has 8 Layers or 15 Layers for HD Version
Banks Lake is a spectacular 26,888-acre reservoir stretching 27 miles through the upper Grand Coulee of north-central Washington State, featuring 135 miles of dramatic shoreline flanked by towering basalt cliffs, talus slopes, and arid scabland terrain carved by the catastrophic Glacial Lake Missoula floods of the last Ice Age. Formed as part of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Columbia Basin Project and filled with water pumped uphill from Lake Roosevelt behind Grand Coulee Dam, Banks Lake is one of Washington's premier multi-species fisheries. Anglers pursue Walleye — the lake's signature species — along with Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Lake Whitefish, Kokanee, Yellow Perch, Black Crappie, Bluegill, Burbot, and Channel Catfish across nine public boat launches and miles of accessible shoreline
Banks Lake runs along Washington State Highway 155 between Coulee City to the south and Electric City and Grand Coulee to the north, placing it within easy reach of Grand Coulee Dam — the largest hydroelectric facility in the United States — which offers free tours and a nightly laser light show. Steamboat Rock State Park, a 5,043-acre crown jewel of the region, features a massive 800-foot basalt butte rising directly from the lake's surface and offers camping, swimming, boating, hiking, and breathtaking 360-degree views of the coulee country. The surrounding landscape of Channeled Scablands, 23 reservoir islands, and the ancient Dry Falls — once the world's largest waterfall — make the Banks Lake corridor one of the most geologically extraordinary settings in all of North America
A laser-cut wooden map of Banks Lake makes an awe-inspiring and truly distinctive piece of wall art for any Pacific Northwest home, cabin, or outdoor enthusiast's space. The natural wood top layer traces every dramatic inlet, peninsula, and island of this sweeping 135-mile shoreline with stunning precision, while the light-to-dark blue gradient water layers capture the reservoir's depth and grandeur in extraordinary detail. Whether displayed above a fireplace, in a great room, or at a lakeside retreat, this handcrafted map is a breathtaking tribute to one of Washington State's most iconic and geologically remarkable bodies of water

The difference between standard and HD maps is the number of layers. Standard maps have 1 land layer and 7 water layers. " The HD lake maps have 1 land layer and 14 water layers. So twice the detail. The HD Maps are limited to Extra Large, " XX Large, and Gigantic sizes only. On the smaller sizes the depth change of the wood is too extreme and you end up losing detail.
