About this map

Port Gamble anchors this 2011 survey of the northern Kitsap Peninsula, showing a landscape defined by its deep relationship with the Puget Sound and Hood Canal. The historic company town of Port Gamble is visible on its namesake inlet, while the S'Klallam community of Little Boston sits across the water on Point Julia. This era of development shows a mix of maritime industry and residential growth, featuring the Port of Kingston Marina and the vital transit connection of the Hood Canal Bridge.

Genealogical and local history details include the Buena Vista Cemetery overlooking the water and the Kingston Cemetery further inland. The map documents smaller settlements and crossroads like Eglon, Striebels Corner, and Maple Tree Corner, along with natural features such as Miller Lake and Carpenter Creek. The presence of the Miller Bay Quarry and Courtenay Dam highlights the human engineering that has shaped this coastal region near Indianola.
