About this map

Ryderwood sits at the northern edge of this landscape, a settlement defined by its planned grid and the nearby Ryderwood Pond. The surrounding terrain of Cowlitz County is dominated by the high points of Abernathy Mountain and Pumphrey Mtn, which overlook a complex network of timber and access routes. These paths, including the Stillwater Truck Trl and the Castle Rock Truck Trl, trace the ridgelines and valley floors between drainage systems like Becker Creek and Monahan Creek.

The map reveals the intensive use of the land for forestry, with several "Truck Trails" such as the Wisconsin Truck Trl and Abernathy Truck Trl crisscrossing the slopes. In the southern sections, more traditional names like Mosquito Creek Rd and Delameter Spur Rd provide access along Delameter Creek, reflecting the intersection of upland industry and the lower creek valleys that feed toward the Cowlitz River basin.
