About this map

Maple Falls and the surrounding river bottomlands near the North Fork Nooksack River define this corner of Whatcom County. The landscape is characterized by a sharp transition from the broad alluvial valley to the steep slopes of Black Mtn and Slide Mtn. This 2014 survey captures the community of Kendall and the Kendall Airstrip, alongside the recreational corridor extending north to Silver Lake. Detailed mapping shows the Black Mountain Boy Scout Camp and various facilities at Silver Lake Park Campground, including the Silver Lake Park Boat Launch.

Transport routes like the Mt Baker Hwy and Silver Lake Rd provide access to the high terrain of Vedder Mtn and the residential pockets of Peaceful Valley. Water drainage patterns are clearly marked by Maple Cr, Boulder Cr, and Racehorse Cr, illustrating the complex hydrology that feeds into the Nooksack system. This record serves as a precise look at the mix of timberlands, small-scale aviation, and recreational infrastructure in the Pacific Northwest.
