1982 Map of Taholah

About this map

The Quinault Indian Reservation meets the Pacific coast on this 1980s-era topographic survey, centered on the settlement of Taholah. Situated at the mouth of the Quinault River, the village's infrastructure includes an Educational Center (Sch), several Water Tanks, and a Sewage Disposal plant. The landscape transition from the river valley to the ocean is marked by distinctive geological and industrial markers, such as a Gas Vent and Gas Mound near Cape Elizabeth. Along the southern coastline, Point Grenville and the Grenville Arch define the entrance to Grenville Bay, while the Washington Islands National Wildlife Refuge extends into the offshore waters. Inland, an Old Railroad Grade traces a historical transport corridor through the forested terrain near Duck Creek, providing a record of the area's logistical history.
