About this map

Qui-nai-elt Village and the coastal community of Moclips anchor this Pacific shoreline survey in Grays Harbor County. The map details a series of seaside settlements connected by the Moclips Hwy and Ocean Beach Rd, including Sunset Beach, Highland Heights, and Pacific Beach. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Pacific Ocean to the coastal bluffs, notable for landmarks such as Yellow Bluff, Copalis Head, and the offshore Copalis Rock.

Further inland, the geography is marked by a network of drainage systems including the Moclips River, Beaver Creek, and Copalis River. The presence of the Copalis State Airport near Iron Springs and the small inland community of Aloha suggest a mix of recreational and residential land use. The map also captures several forest roads like RD B-2500 and RD B-1000, which provide access to the timberlands east of the coastal strip.
