2023 Map of Grayland

About this map

Grayland and the surrounding coastline of Grays Harbor define this survey of the Washington coast. The landscape is a complex network of coastal wetlands and tidal inlets, including Beardslee Slough, Mallard Slough, and the branching Elk River. The area between the Pacific Ocean and the inner harbor shows a distinctive settlement pattern along the narrow coastal strip, reaching from Westport in the north through Cohassett to Heather in the south. Notable interior features include the Grayland-Intergalactic Airport and numerous water bodies like Horseshoe Lake and Long Lake. The terrain transitions from the low-lying coastal plains to the elevated Seastrand Ridge in the southeast, where the headwaters of the Cedar River and Andrews Creek originate, highlighting the region's dense hydrography and intricate shoreline.
