About this map

Hood Canal and Thorndyke Bay define the landscape of this 2011 survey, which captures a corridor of coastal Kitsap County marked by small residential settlements and active resource extraction. Local industry is evident through several named aggregate sites, including the Shine Quarry near the northern shore and the Lofall Pit, Settle Pit, and Pioneer Pit further south. These sites sit alongside established communities like Breidablick and Vinland, where genealogical landmarks such as the Vinland Lutheran Church Cemetery and Breidablick Chapel Cemetery anchor the area's social history.

The topography is characterized by glacial features like Case Shoal and South Point, which extend into the deep waters of the canal. Inland, the map documents a series of small, perched water bodies including Tule Lake, Lost Lake, and Cattail Lake, the latter of which is managed by the Cattail Lake Dam. These hydrology patterns, combined with landmarks like Shine Lookout and Termination Point, provide a detailed record of the rural-residential and industrial development north of Poulsbo during the early 21st century.
