2020 Map of Orting

About this map

Orting sits at the confluence of the Puyallup River and the Carbon River, a landscape defined by its glacial river valleys and the proximity of these significant waterways. The 2020 map documents the town's grid and surrounding rural character, featuring landmarks such as the Orting Cem and Soldiers Pond. To the south, the terrain transitions toward the smaller settlement of Tanwax and the aviation-related Kapowsin Field. The complex drainage network is evident through numerous named tributaries like South Prairie Creek, Voight Cr, and Fiske Cr, while distinctive topography appears at Spar Pole Hill to the east. This survey illustrates the modern residential expansion near Orting Lake and Morgan Lake, capturing the residential development of the Pierce County interior alongside established natural features like Forest Lake and Kings Cr.
