About this map

Blaine sits at the northern edge of this Washington coastal landscape, where Drayton Harbor meets the winding paths of Dakota Creek and California Creek. The region is defined by its rural density, featuring several established burial grounds such as Blaine Cem, Haynie Cem, and Hillsdale Cem, which serve as vital points of interest for local genealogy. Further south, the community of Custer marks a key intersection near the small settlements of Pleasant Valley and Kickerville.

The landscape is dotted with small water bodies like Heide Pond and Simonson Pond, alongside localized infrastructure like the Birch Bay Circle Grange. This map illustrates a transition from the structured street grid of the border town of Blaine to the dispersed farmsteads and creek-fed valleys that characterize northern Whatcom County. The layout of roads like Birch Bay Lynden Rd and Blaine-Ferndale Rd highlights the connectivity between these small inland communities and the coast.
