About this map

The western shore of the Hood Canal dominates this coastal landscape, where the Olympic foothills meet the saltwater of Dabob Bay. The settlement of Brinnon sits at the heart of the map, situated between the mouths of the Dosewallips River and the Duckabush River. This 2020 survey illustrates the contemporary road network following the rugged shoreline, including the established US Highway 101 and the winding Old Brinnon Highway.

Deep within the eastern edges of the Olympic National Forest, the terrain rises sharply toward peaks like Mt Jupiter and Mt Turner. Local industry and conservation efforts are represented by the Quilcene National Fish Hatchery located near Brinnon Flats. The map records specific coastal landmarks such as Black Point, Sylopash Point, and the sheltered waters of Pleasant Harbor, providing a detailed view of the interaction between the steep drainage basins of the Olympic Mountains and the Puget Sound maritime environment.
