About this map

Central Park and the lower Chehalis River basin define this landscape where riverine sloughs and forested hills meet. This 2017 survey shows the intricate drainage systems of the Wynoochee River and Little North River, revealing how water has shaped the settlement patterns of Grays Harbor County. The map details a network of islands and waterways, including Higgins Island and Sand Island, set against the backdrop of the tidally influenced river.

Smaller communities such as Junction City, Melbourne, and the curiously named Artic are documented along with the rural residential growth in Wynoochee Valley and Alder Grove. Local infrastructure is represented through roads like Blue Slough Rd and Wynoochee Valley Rd, which follow the contours of the river valleys. The presence of Lake Aberdeen and numerous named creeks like Mill Cr and Charley Cr indicates a land deeply tied to its hydrology and timber-rich hillsides.
