The Skagit River dominates this landscape, winding between the growing urban centers of Mount Vernon and Burlington. The river’s complex hydrology is visible through features like Gages Slough and the South Fork Skagit River, which define the low-lying valley floor. To the north, Burlington Hill and Sterling Hill rise above the alluvial plains, providing natural landmarks that have historically guided settlement away from the flood-prone margins of the Olympia Marsh.
