About this map

Lummi Bay and the surrounding coastal landscape of Whatcom County define this 2020 study, highlighting the intersection of industrial development and ancestral lands. The shoreline transitions from the industrial hub near Intalco and Cherry Point in the north to the residential communities of Neptune Beach and Sandy Point further south. Inland, the freshwater Lake Terrell stands as a prominent feature, surrounded by a grid of rural roads like Mountain View Rd and Kickerville Rd that serve the settlement of Mountain View.

The southeastern portion of the map is dominated by the Lummi Flats, where the Lummi River meets the bay near the settlement of Cha-Choo-Sen. This area shows the complex drainage patterns of the lowlands, including the Schell Ditch near the city of Ferndale. The map records a modern moment in this maritime region, preserving the names of local infrastructure from Haxton Way to the many small lanes serving the coastal peninsulas.
