1986 Map of Pluvius

About this map

The Willapa River winds through the heart of this Pacific County landscape, carving a valley between the prominent elevations of P And E Ridge and Huckleberry Ridge. This terrain is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Fern Creek, Mill Creek, and Salmon Creek, which feed into the primary river system. The settlement at Pluvius occupies a strategic position near Pluvius Hill, while the community of Frances is situated to the west, bordering the open expanse of Willapa Prairie. Evidence of the region's logging and land-use history is visible through several labeled Borrow Pits and the Ridge WTL. Local landmarks such as the Willapa Falls and named high points like Walville Peak and Squally Jim provide significant navigational and historical reference points for this part of southwestern Washington.
