2020 Map of Shelton

About this map

Shelton serves as the focal point for this Mason County landscape, situated where Goldsborough Cr and Shelton Cr meet the head of Oakland Bay. The map illustrates a dense grid of streets including W Railroad Ave and W Cota St, reflecting the town's historical foundations in the timber and maritime industries. Surrounding the urban center, the terrain is defined by the intricate finger-like inlets of the southern Puget Sound, with Hammersley Inlet, Little Skookum Inlet, and Totten Inlet carving deep into the land. Smaller settlements and named locales like Johns Prairie, Oakland, and Bayshore dot the northern reaches, while Kamilche sits to the south. Local heritage is preserved in sites like the Miller Cem and landmarks such as Church Point and Kamilche Point, while numerous coves like Chapman Cove and Deer Harbor highlight the area's complex relationship with the tide and shore.
