About this map

North Bonneville sits at the southern edge of this landscape along the Columbia River, serving as a primary point of settlement near the massive geological monolith of Beacon Rock. The area's topography is defined by significant elevation changes, from the riverbank up to the high point of Hamilton Mountain. To the north, the terrain becomes increasingly complex with the drainage systems of Hamilton Creek and Stebbins Creek, eventually reaching the Three Corner Rock Lookout.

A network of forest roads and trails, including Dimrill Dale Rd and the Three Corner Rock Trailhead, provides access to the interior. The presence of water management is visible at the B and W Pond Dam Number One and B and W Pond Dam Number Three. Nature preserves and scenic points such as Wahclella Natural Park and the cascading waters of Hardy Falls and Rodney Falls highlight the region's character as a crossroads of industrial hydro-utility and natural conservation.
