About this map

The North Nemah River valley and its surrounding timberlands dominate this portion of Pacific County as they appeared in 2011. The settlement of North Nemah serves as the primary hub for the region, situated near the Nemah Hatchery along the river's lower reaches. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways including the Canon River, Niawiakum River, and the South Fork Willapa River, which carve through the coastal terrain.

Loggers and local historians can trace the arterial routes that penetrate the backcountry, such as Nemah Valley Rd and Williams Creek Rd. The geography is characterized by the confluence of numerous drainage systems, from the North Fork Palix River to smaller tributaries like Pickernell Creek and Finn Creek, illustrating the heavy precipitation and drainage patterns typical of the Washington coast.
