- Sun Lakes Wildlife Area Unit (wdfw.wa.gov)
The Sun Lakes Unit abuts Sun Lakes State Park and parts of Park, Blue, Alkali, and Lenore Lakes. Historic glacial floods in this area scoured and carved away millions of cubic feet of lava leaving behind a deep and long coulee rimmed by basalt cliffs; numerous cliffs, talus slopes, and bare rock characterize this unit.
