1937 Map of Eatonville

About this map

Timber and rail define this Washington landscape during the mid-1930s, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad winds through the river valleys of the Nisqually River and Cowlitz River. The settlement of Eatonville serves as a central hub, supported by smaller timber and mining communities like Mineral and Morton. This era highlights the industrial infrastructure of the Pacific Northwest, including a Lumber Flume near the Puyallup River and the Add Mine near Mineral Lake.
