1956 Map of Greenwater

About this map

The White River and Green River valleys dominate this mid-century look at the eastern reaches of King and Pierce counties. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Northern Pacific railroad, which follows the northern river corridor through mountain settlements like Nagrom, Maywood, and Humphrey. To the south, the White River valley hosts the community of Greenwater and the sprawling Federation Forest State Park, illustrating the region's mid-century balance between industrial timber transport and burgeoning mountain recreation.
