1950 Map of Elwha

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Elwha River carves a deep path through the northern Olympic Peninsula, where mid-century infrastructure meets the edges of Olympic National Park. This 1950 survey, photorevised in 1978, illustrates a landscape defined by the river’s harness, featuring both Lake Aldwell and the Upper Elwha Dam at Lake Mills. The presence of the Olympic Power Plant and the Elwha Ranger Sta highlights the dual roles of resource management and conservation in this era.
