About this map

Bertrand Creek and its many tributaries define this border-country landscape just south of the Canadian line. The map captures a primarily agricultural region near the rural settlement of Delta, where a dense grid of farm-to-market roads like H Street Rd and W Badger Rd connects scattered farmsteads. The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the meandering course of the Nooksack River, which creates a complex hydrology of sloughs and oxbow lakes, including Keefe Lake.

Local recreational and aviation history is preserved in landmarks such as Berthusen Memorial Park and the small Meadow Mist Airport. The drainage patterns are particularly intricate here, with the North Fork Dakota Creek and South Fork Dakota Creek reaching toward the coast, while Fishtrap Creek and Wiser Lake Creek feed the Nooksack system. Small residential pockets like Lynnwood appear alongside established family-named thoroughfares, reflecting the steady transition from traditional timber and dairy lands to a modern rural-residential mix.
