Willapa Hills

Willapa Hills

The Willapa Hills is a range of hills in Pacific, Wahkiakum, and Lewis counties in Washington State. The highest point is 3,061 foot (933 meter) Boistfort Peak. The Willapa Hills are the lowest uplands in the entire Pacific Coast Range system. Almost all of the land is privately held and has been repeatedly logged. Only a few long corners remain with virgin forest. Alders less than twenty years old are typically harvested for pulp mills.
