About this map

The City of Everett Watershed dominates this portion of the Cascade foothills, where the Sultan River and Pilchuck River carve through the high terrain of the Snoqualmie National Forest. This protected area is essential for regional water management, featuring the Everett Water Work Intake and the large reservoir at Lake Chaplain. The landscape transitions from the high peaks of Sultan Ridge and Haywire Ridge down toward the valley floor, where more developed land uses emerge.

In the southern reaches, the geography shifts toward agriculture and recreation. Small-scale holdings such as Rain Spirit Farm sit near the winding course of Woods Creek, while the Blue Boy West Golf Course indicates the suburban fringe. Historical landmarks like the Blue Mountain Lookout and the intricate turn at Horseshoe Bend highlight how the local topography has dictated both fire surveillance and road development in this part of Snohomish County.
