1990 Map of Burnt Hill

About this map

Olympic National Forest land dominates this 1990 provisional study, revealing the complex drainage network of the Humptulips River and its major tributaries. The landscape is defined by the steep relief of Burnt Hill and Cougar Mountain, where the West Fork Humptulips River carves a winding path through the timberlands. Cultural markers are sparse but significant for tracing historical land use, including the Humptulips FS Station and several industrial features such as a Borrow Pit and an old Railroad Grade. These elements reflect a period of intensive forest management and resource extraction in Grays Harbor County. Smaller waterways like Donkey Creek and O'Brien Creek feed into the larger river systems, illustrating the hydrological patterns that have shaped the development of this Pacific Northwest timber region.
