2011 Map of North Bend

About this map

North Bend serves as the focal point of this Cascade foothills landscape, situated where the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River and South Fork Snoqualmie River diverge near the prominent peak of Little Si. The 2011 survey captures a mix of modern residential growth in Harman Heights and Riverbend alongside the enduring infrastructure of the Cedar River watershed. To the south, the importance of water management is evident at Chester-Morse Lake, where the Masonry Dam and Lower Dam regulate the flow essential to the region. Traces of the area's timber and rail history remain visible through labels like Old Railroad Grade Rd and the locations of Snoose Junction and Bagley Junction. The map also details the transition from the valley floor to the high ground of Rattlesnake Mountain and Lookout Mountain, documenting the topographic relationship between settled areas and the surrounding protected highlands.
