The confluence of the Columbia River and Willamette River anchors this 1979 survey, revealing the complex transit and water networks of the Pacific Northwest during a period of significant regional growth. Portions of Portland and Vancouver are shown in detail, including the heavy infrastructure of the Portland International Airport and the historic Vancouver Barracks. The map captures the industrial and academic character of the era through sites like the University of Portland and Reed College, while the surrounding landscape is defined by massive natural and managed areas such as the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and the Sauvie Island Wildlife Area.
