Wenatchee Valley Development Probability
This map was created for the Trust for Public Land as part of the Wenatchee Watershed Vision project. When buying a home or deciding to relocate to a new area, every homeowner has a different checklist of priorities. That said, there are some basic factors, such as water and electricity availability, slope, and proximity to the highway or other roads, that nearly every homeowner considers. This map predicts where such development would likely occur based on these and a number of other variables such as views, distance to rivers and streams, and urban amenities.

Working together with LeeSaa Consulting and TerraGIS, we delineated the probable zone of future avulsion events in the Sauk, Nooksack, and Cowlitz rivers and ranked the forested, privately owned parcels to assist DNR in identifying and contacting land owners that might be interested in enrolling in the program.
