2011 Map of Carlisle

About this map

Carlisle and its surrounding clusters, Carlisle West and Carlisle East, anchor this coastal Washington landscape defined by a complex network of waterways. The Copalis River meanders through the central terrain, eventually meeting the lower reaches of the Humptulips River to the southeast. This geography is marked by small water bodies like the Carlisle Lakes and Damon Lake, which drain into several named tributaries including Damon Creek and Joe Creek. Industrial and transit footprints are evident at the Kirkpatrick Quarry and via thoroughfares such as Ocean Beach Rd and Kirkpatrick Rd. The settlement of Onslow sits to the west, situated within a topography that balances timbered lands and river valleys. The presence of numerous numbered forestry roads suggests the ongoing importance of resource management in this corner of Grays Harbor County during the early 21st century.
