2017 Map of Grays River

About this map

Grays River winds through a landscape of timbered hills and fertile valleys in this modern survey of Wahkiakum County. The area is defined by its connection to the water, where the river meets the Columbia River at the Welch Island Reach. Notable for its local history and rural character, the map highlights the Grays River Covered Bridge, a significant landmark for the community of Grays River. Along the northern banks of the Columbia, historical fishing and cannery sites like Altoona, Dahlia, and Brookfield are documented, alongside distinctive river features such as Pillar Rock and Jim Crow Point. Inland, the terrain rises toward Elk Mtn and KM Mtn, with smaller settlements like Rosburg and Eden Valley tucked into the drainage basins of Crooked Cr and its various forks.
