About this map

Olympic National Park occupies the southwestern corner of this landscape, where the waters of Umbrella Bay meet the heavily forested foothills of the Olympic Mountains. This coastal environment is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the Tsoo-Yess River in the north and the Big River winding through the southern reaches. The presence of Elk Lake and numerous drainages like Shafter Creek and Snag Creek suggest a terrain carved by significant annual rainfall and glacial history.

Transportation through this part of Clallam County relies on a network of resource roads such as Hoko Ozette Rd and Ozette Rd, which connect the interior timberlands to the shoreline. Landmarks like Snag Peak serve as primary navigational points in an area otherwise characterized by deep drainages and tributary systems like the East Branch Umbrella Creek. The map provides a clear look at the modern land management boundaries between national park land and the surrounding forest zones.
