2014 Map of Port Angeles

About this map

Port Angeles anchors the northern coastline of the Olympic Peninsula on this 2014 survey, where the Port Angeles Ferry Landing and Port Angeles City Pier facilitate maritime transit across the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The city's grid transitions from waterfront commerce to residential neighborhoods and educational hubs like Peninsula Coll before rising into the northern reaches of Olympic National Park. This transition from sea level to the high ridges of the Olympic Mountains is marked by the steep drainages of Tumwater Cr, Valley Cr, and Ennis Cr, which carve deep paths through The Foothills. In the southern portion of the map, the terrain rises sharply toward Wildcat Mtn and Lake Angeles, illustrating the literal threshold between urban development and the protected wilderness of the Olympic National Forest.
