About this map

Tulalip Indian Reservation lands dominate the western landscape of this survey, where the Tulalip Storage Depot stands as a significant military installation. The town of Marysville serves as the central hub, situated where the Great Northern railroad line runs parallel to the intricate tidal waterways of the Snohomish River delta. The 1968 purple revisions indicate suburban expansion into the surrounding foothills and marshes, notably around Cedarcrest and the area near Kellogg Marsh Grange.

The hydrography of the region is exceptionally detailed, showing the complex network of Ebey Slough, Steamboat Slough, and Union Slough as they weave around Smith Island and Ebey Island. Local social infrastructure is well-documented, featuring rural landmarks like Shoultes School and the Priest Point Grange. In the south, the northern edge of Everett is visible, including industrial features such as the GN Shops and the Delta Junc rail junction.
