About this map

Nooksack River winds through the southern portion of this Whatcom County landscape, its course defined by protective levees that reflect the agricultural importance of the surrounding lowlands. The rural character of the early 1950s is evident in the dense network of named farm-to-market roads, such as Birch Bay Lynden Road and Alder Grove Road, which connect isolated farmsteads and small crossroads communities. Local social centers are anchored by several country congregations, including Evergreen Community Church near the Enterprise Cem and Glendale Church further north along Bertrand Creek. Cultural and recreational landmarks of the era include the Berthusen Memorial Park and the Lynden Gun Club. The northern border of the map marks the international boundary with Canada, where the terrain transitions into the more structured grid of Street Road and Johnson Rd.
