About this map

Central Park serves as a residential corridor between the industrial hub of Aberdeen and the riverfront communities of the Chehalis valley. The landscape is defined by the intricate winding of the Chehalis River, which branches into a complex network of waterways including Mox Chuck Slough, Preachers Slough, and Blue Slough. These tidally influenced channels isolate landmasses such as Higgins Island and Sand Island, creating a unique wetland geography that has historically shaped local transit and development.

Moving inland, the elevation rises toward Lake Aberdeen and the timber-rich hillsides. Smaller settlements like Melbourne and Artic anchor the southern reaches along the North River, while the northern section is characterized by the Wynoochee Valley. The map details a dense network of local roads such as Linkshire Dr and Devonshire Rd that bridge the gap between the low-lying river bottomlands and the upland forests.
