2014 Map of Doty

About this map

Doty and Dryad sit along the corridor of the Chehalis River in Lewis County, marking a transitional landscape where the river valley meets the elevated timberlands of the Doty Hills. This 2014 survey documents the enduring layout of these rural communities, connected by Wa-6 and Doty Dryad RD as they follow the natural bend of the water. The map traces a complex network of drainage basins, including the headwaters of the Fall River, N Fork Lincoln Cr, and S Fork Lincoln Cr, which carve through the high ground punctuated by Bucks Knob. Local history is anchored by the Sylvan Cem and the settlement of Murnen to the south. The presence of numerous forest access roads and creek-side routes like Elk Creek RD reflects the region's continued reliance on its hydraulic and timber geography.
