2013 Map of Ariel

About this map

Lake Merwin and the Lewis River form a natural boundary between Cowlitz and Clark counties in this Pacific Northwest landscape. The area is characterized by a transition from the water-level settlements of Ariel and Etna to the high ground of Davis Peak and Green Mountain. Genealogists will find the locations of Lone Pine Cem and Mtn View Cem useful for family research, while the presence of La Center View-Air Airport and Mc Clellan Field Airport reflects the rural aviation history of the region. The map reveals a network of small communities like Amboy, Dayton, and Cedarville, connected by established routes such as NE Pup Creek Rd and NE Fargher Lake Hwy. Moving south, the terrain levels into the vicinity of Fargher Lake and the Tsugawa Brothers Reservoir, showing the distribution of rural residences and the agricultural footprint of these upland valleys.
