1959 Map of Eatonville
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The town of Eatonville serves as the focal point of this Pierce County survey, illustrating a landscape defined by the heavy timber industry and hydroelectric power production in the mid-20th century. The Nisqually River flows through the center of the sheet, harnessed by the La Grande Dam and the Alder Dam Powerhouse, which created the expansive Alder Lake. The University of Washington's Charles Lathrop Pack Demonstration Forest occupies a large tract of land east of the river, while the Snoqualmie National Forest borders the southern reaches. Transportation for the region's logging and utility sectors is anchored by the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad, which winds through the Mashel River valley past settlements like New Reliance and La Grande.
