1958 Map of Fort Simcoe

About this map

Fort Simcoe Historical State Park serves as the focal point of this mid-century landscape, preserving the site of the mid-19th century military installation and subsequent Indian Agency. The map detail highlights the preservation of local history through labels like Mool Mool Spring and a marked Grave near the park's center. To the south, the terrain transitions into the steep elevations of Toppenish Ridge, where the Satus Peak Lookout stands sentinel over the canyon systems. Water management is a visible priority across this arid geography, evidenced by the presence of a Canal, a Siphon, and a Flume along Agency Creek. Settlement is sparse, represented by named clearings such as Barbers Flat and Whiskey Jim Flat, connected by a network of primitive routes including the Mt Adams Highway and various logging roads.
