About this map

The North Fork Stillaguamish River and its various branches dominate this mountain landscape, carving through the high country around Segelsen Ridge and Round Mountain. The valley floor near the river's bend serves as the primary corridor for human activity, centered around the settlement of Fortson. This area shows the intersection of industry and the natural environment, notably marked by the Fortson Mill Pond, its associated Fortson Mill Pond Dam, and the nearby Fortson Ponds.

Residential enclaves like Swede Heaven, White Horse, and Barco are connected by a network of local roads such as Swede Heaven Rd and Squire Creek Rd. To the south, Squire Creek and Furland Creek flow through narrower drainages, while the Powerline Rd cuts across the southeastern terrain. High-altitude landmarks like Coney Pass and Deer Creek Pass provide critical navigational points for those moving between the steep ridges of the Stillaguamish watershed.
