About this map

Sequim and its surrounding agricultural valley are defined by the Dungeness River as it flows toward the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This modern survey illustrates the residential expansion of the Olympic Peninsula, where small settlements like Carlsborg and Agnew serve as hubs between the coast and the rising timberlands. Aviation history is prominent with both the Sequim Valley Airport and Grand View International Airport situated on the outskirts of town.

The landscape transitions from the developed coastal plains of the Dungeness Valley into the steep, wooded terrain of the Olympic National Forest. Family-named roads and landmarks, such as Texas Valley, Lost Mtn, and the Aldrich Reservoir, reveal the complex geography of the rain shadow region. Moving south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex along the banks of McDonald Cr and Matriotti Cr, marking the foothills of the Olympic Mountains.
