About this map

The Puyallup River and Carbon River converge near Orting, shaping a landscape defined by the broad Puyallup Valley. This 2017 survey shows the intricate residential expansion of South Hill and the established street grids of McMillin and Crocker. Significant local landmarks include the Orting Cem and the Soldiers Pond, while the southern reaches of the map transition into the elevations of Spar Pole Hill.

The map reveals a network of rural and suburban infrastructure, from the industrial proximity of Kapowsin Field to the numerous small creeks like Voight Cr and Fiske Cr that drain the eastern highlands. For genealogists and local historians, the detailed residential street names in the Orting area, such as Daffodil Ave NE and Washington Ave N, offer a precise look at the community's modern footprint along the riverbanks.
