what watershed is table rock mountain in
People visiting Table Rock are not allowed beyond the Mill Creek Watershed boundary, which is clearly marked with numerous signs. As mentioned earlier, the Mill Creek Watershed is a closed watershed and no public access is allowed, as it is the municipal water source for the city of Walla Walla, Washington.
From some locations near to and lower than Table Rock, the peak appears to have a conical-shaped summit area. In reality, the summit area is fairly large, flat, and rocky, allowing for âTable Rockâ to be a fitting name. As the third-tallest peak in Columbia County, and the tallest peak within a ~12-mile radius, Table Rock is an ideal viewpoint from which to see into the Blue Mountains and surrounding areas.
