About this map

Lake Pleasant and its surrounding river valleys define the landscape of this Clallam County region at the turn of the 21st century. The settlement of Sappho sits as a central junction where local commerce and forest access meet, supported by essential services like the Beaver Fire Dept. The terrain is characterized by a mix of high timberland, such as Tyee Hill and Beaver Hill, and low-lying openings like Beaver Prairie and Maxfield Prairie.

Water resources are central to the area's geography, with the Sol Duc River winding through the Sol Duc Valley near the Sol Duc Salmon Hatchery. Other significant waterways including the Hoko River and Calawah River underscore the region's importance for local industry and ecology. Much of the eastern and southern portions of the map fall within the Olympic National Forest, indicated by numerous land tracts and administrative boundaries.
