2017 Map of Raymond

About this map

The Willapa River and its complex tidal reaches define the landscape around the town of Raymond and the community of Willapa. This 2017 study illustrates the dense network of drainage and sloughs that feed into the main channel, including Ellis Slough and South Fork Willapa River. The timber and agricultural legacy of Pacific County is visible in the network of logging roads like G Line Rd and A Line Rd that snake through the uplands, while the valley floor is occupied by the residential areas of Willapa Valley and Raymond Heights Reservoir. For genealogists, the map identifies significant burial sites including Washington Cem near the town center and Fern Hill Cem to the southeast. These landmarks, along with many family-named features like Donaldson Cr and Lilly Wheaton Rd, offer a detailed view of the modern settlement pattern in this coastal river valley.
