1954 Map of Bow

About this map

Samish Bay and Padilla Bay dominate this coastal landscape, where the shifting mudflats meet the agricultural and transit corridors of Skagit County. The Great Northern railway and the scenic Chuckanut Drive skirt the shoreline, connecting the settlements of Blanchard and Bow. Inland, the Samish River and several artificial drainage systems like Edison Slough and Joe Leary Slough reflect a heavily managed water system designed to reclaim land from Olympia Marsh and the surrounding tideflats.
