About this map

Fox Island and the surrounding reaches of Carr Inlet and Henderson Bay define this maritime landscape in Pierce County. The 2020 topography illustrates the intricate shoreline of the Great Peninsula and Key Peninsula, where settlements like Artondale, Arletta, and Minter are connected by a network of local roads and coastal drives. Notable residential and recreation patterns are visible near water bodies such as Lake Minterwood and Sylvia Lake, while smaller islands like Raft Island and Tanglewood Island dot the surrounding passages.

Local history is preserved at the Fox Island Cem, located on the southern end of its namesake island near Ketners Point. The transition from mainland to island is anchored by the Island Bridge, spanning Hale Passage to connect the community at Warren with the island interior. From the northern edge near Gig Harbor to the southern tip at South Head, the map documents a modern Pacific Northwest coastal environment shaped by its inlets, coves, and spits.
