About this map

Lake Joy and Moss Lake sit at the heart of this landscape, nestled within the drainage basins of the Tolt and Snoqualmie river systems. The area reflects a complex water management and utility infrastructure, anchored by the Tolt River Regulating Basin and the long, linear path of the Tolt Pipeline Trail. The terrain is defined by the convergence of numerous watercourses, including the North Fork Tolt River and S Fork Tolt River, alongside smaller tributaries like Stossel Cr and Griffin Cr.

While the town of Carnation appears in the southwestern corner, much of the map is dedicated to industrial and logging access routes such as the Tolt Truck Trl and Swan Mill Rd. The transition from rural residential clusters near the lakes to the structured forestry and water utility zones to the east illustrates the dual role this region plays in supporting local recreation and regional infrastructure.
