2011 Map of Pysht

About this map

Pysht sits at the northern edge of the Olympic Peninsula, where the Pysht River and Indian Creek empty into the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The geography of the shoreline is defined by notable coastal landmarks like Pillar Point and Tree Bluff. The interior landscape is dominated by a dense network of watercourses, including the South Fork Pysht River and the various branches of Deep Creek. Evidence of local industry and agriculture is seen at the Pysht Millpond and the Gibson Farm further inland. The transportation network is concentrated along the coast and river valleys, primarily served by Pysht River Rd and Gibson Rd. This 2011 survey captures the area at a time when the landscape remained heavily defined by its drainage basins and coastal proximity, with minimal dense development outside the namesake settlement.
