The mouth would be near Seattle today and would cover a major portion of the Pacific Northwest. Even islands within the sea are shown. Also, a possible north west passage river route is shown further north. Emptying into what would be the Bering straits area, even a group of islands the precursors to the actual Aleutian Islands is shown.1780/1781 map by Jean Nolin Batiste, Paris, published posthumously in 1791 in ‘Atlas General a l' Unsage des Colleges et Maisons d'Education Adapte aux Differents Ourrages de Geographie'.
