2020 Map of East of Raymond

About this map

The settlement of Sutico sits in the southern reaches of this landscape, a lone named community within the dense drainage network of the Willapa Hills. The area is defined by its complex hydrology, where numerous streams like Wilson Cr and Fairchild Cr carve through the terrain before feeding into larger systems. This 2020 survey illustrates a region dominated by timber and natural resource management, indicated by the network of utility roads such as G Line RD and Mill Creek Rd that provide access to the interior ridges and valleys. To the north, the terrain rises toward the headwaters of the Fall River, while numerous small tributaries including Ward Cr and Howe Cr branch off across the northern sections. This topography reveals the intricate water-shedding patterns of the Pacific Northwest coast, where narrow valleys and sharp ridgelines dictate the sparse settlement pattern and the reach of local transport routes.
