About this map

The Nisqually River and Deschutes River define the hydrography of this Pierce and Thurston County borderland, where the water systems create a diverse landscape of wetlands and elevations. Significant water bodies like Clear Lake and Elbow Lake are surrounded by a network of local roads including Bald Hill Rd SE and Weyerhauser Truck Rd SE, indicating the region's managed timber and residential layout.

Elevations rise toward the prominent Bald Hill and Green Hill, while specific geological features such as Fossil Rock provide unique landmarks within the terrain. The presence of Parsnip Swamp and Deschutes Falls highlights the varied aquatic environments, from still wetlands to moving cascades. This survey captures the transition from the developed lakeside communities near Clear Lake Blvd SE to the more remote, high-relief areas along the Little Deschutes River.
