1987 Map of Kiona Peak

About this map

The Cowlitz River forms the southern boundary of this high-elevation terrain in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. This 1980s landscape is defined by the sharp rise toward Kiona Peak and Johnson Mountain, with significant industrial and infrastructure markers scattered through the timberland. Of particular interest to local historians are the small clusters of settlement such as Owen and Huff, along with a local Cem and the Rainey Valley Trailer Park. The map documents a working forest environment, shown through multiple Borrow Pit excavations and a network of 4WD tracks. Hydrological features like the North Fork Swamp and the headwaters of Mineral Creek provide insight into the drainage patterns of the southern Cascades during this era.
