About this map

The Chehalis River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and industry in this 1980s Lewis County landscape. The communities of Doty and Dryad are established along the riverbanks, where an Old R. R. Grade indicates the historical importance of rail transport for moving timber from the surrounding uplands. These uplands are dominated by the Doty Hills and prominent peaks like Bucks Knob, dissected by an intricate drainage system including North Fork Lincoln Creek and South Fork Lincoln Creek. Evidence of local resource extraction is found in several Borrow Pits scattered near the ridge lines. For those tracing local history, the Sylvan Cem stands near the river, while smaller settlements like Murnen represent the dispersed nature of habitation along the creeks that feed into the Chehalis, such as Elk Creek and Bunker Creek.
