1956 Map of Destruction Island

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Hoh Indian Reservation and the Queets Indian Reservation anchor this mid-century survey of the Washington coast, where the rainforest meets the Pacific. The landscape is defined by the powerful convergence of the Hoh River, Clearwater River, and Quinault River as they reach the sea. This 1956 survey records a period when coastal access was maintained via a series of numbered trails, including Beach Trail 1 and Beach Trail 5, during the early expansion of Olympic National Park.
