2011 Map of Olalla

About this map

Colvos Passage serves as the dominant waterway for this coastal region of Kitsap and Pierce counties, where steep-banked points and quiet coves define the shoreline. The settlement of Olalla sits at the mouth of Olalla Creek, a historic local hub evidenced by the Olalla Post Office and nearby Al's Marina. The map reveals a landscape transitioned from agricultural roots to a modern residential and recreational network, featuring small airfields like Vaughans Ranch Airport and the Spadoni Brothers Private Airport. To the west, the terrain slopes toward Henderson Bay and the community of Purdy, while the interior is dotted with water bodies like Crescent Lake and Long Lake. Longstanding community markers, such as the Fraola Cemetery near Olalla Valley, provide essential reference points for genealogists tracing family roots in these Puget Sound coastal settlements.
