About this map

The North Fork Toutle River valley dominates this landscape, showing the ongoing management of volcanic sediment decades after the Mount St. Helens eruption. Engineering efforts are central to the area, evidenced by major structures like the Toutle Dam and the twin debris retention works, North Fork Toutle Debris Dam A and North Fork Toutle Debris Dam B. These features, along with the Debris Dam Viewpoint, reflect the region's unique geographical challenges and its importance for flood and sediment control.

Uphill from the river, the settlement of Camp Baker sits near the base of Hoffstadt Mountain, serving as a point of human activity amidst the drainage basins of Hoffstadt Creek and Deer Creek. To the north, the Green River carves through the terrain, while the southeastern corner is anchored by the elevation of Spotted Buck Mountain. The map illustrates a territory defined by high-gradient streams and the infrastructure required to stabilize a changing riverbed.
