2023 Map of Orchards

About this map

The suburban landscape of Clark County takes center stage on this detailed study, where historical cemeteries and modern infrastructure intersect. The geography is defined by the drainage of Salmon Creek and Burnt Bridge Creek, which carve through the plateau known as Fourth Plain. This area maintains a mix of its rural past and expanding residential footprints, visible in the cluster of burial grounds like Evergreen Memorial Gardens and the Saint John the Evangelist Catholic Cem. Aviation history is well-represented by several small landing strips, including the Brush Prairie Aerodrome, Fly for Fun Airport, and Evergreen North-South Airpark. These features, alongside named crossroads like Homan and Sifton, illustrate the transition from independent farming communities to the interconnected suburbs of north Vancouver.
