2017 Map of Silver Lake

About this map

Silver Lake and the winding Toutle River define this corner of Cowlitz County, where the water dictates the patterns of local life and transit. The map reveals a cluster of small islands within the lake, including Pete Moore Island, Waldon Island, and Goat Island, alongside the prominent Timber Point. To the north, the terrain rises into the Wilkes Hills and drops through the dramatic Hollywood Gorge, carved by Rock Cr. This area is marked by several early burial sites that anchor the local genealogy, such as Tower Cem, Silver Lake Cem, and Rosin Cem. The network of logging roads and secondary routes like Toutle River Rd and Tower Rd trace the paths through the timberlands and along the tributary waters of Stankey Cr and Salmon Cr.
