About this map

The Humptulips River dominates this coastal landscape as it winds toward the North Bay of Grays Harbor. This 2020 map documents the intricate wetland and estuarine systems of the Washington coast, where tidal channels like Campbell Slough and Chenois Creek Channel weave through the salt marshes. Inland, small settlements such as Copalis Crossing, Newton, and Tulips are scattered across the terrain, connected by local routes like Copalis Beach Rd and Chenois Valley Rd.

Elevations rise at Langley Hill and Saddle Hill, providing contrast to the low-lying sloughs such as Burg Slough and Jessie Slough. Local history researchers will find interest in the naming of small communities like Burrows and Gray Gables, alongside named water bodies like Shye Lake and Cranberry Cr. The presence of a Pvt Logging Rd in the northeast suggests the ongoing importance of timber and natural resource management in this region of Grays Harbor County.
