About this map

Forks stands as the central hub of this Olympic Peninsula landscape, situated at the confluence of the Soleduck River, Calawah River, and Bogachiel River. In the late 1930s, the region’s economy is clearly defined by timber and emerging oil exploration. The presence of the Port Angeles Western railroad and the Bloedel Donovan Beaver Camp highlight the intensive logging operations of the era, while the Huling Bro Shingle Mill signals local processing.
