About this map

Shuwah and the surrounding timberlands of the Olympic Mountains define this corner of the Olympic Peninsula. The landscape is dominated by the intricate drainage systems of the Middle Fork Dickey River and E Fork Dickey River, which carve through the dense terrain between Gunderson Mtn and Nelson Hill. These watercourses, along with Sands Cr and Skunk Cr, emphasize the region's historical reliance on river networks for resource management and transport.

Local landmarks such as Dickey Camp and Maxfield Prairie suggest the area's transition between wilderness and early twentieth-century settlement. To the southeast, the Sol Duc River flows through the Sol Duc Valley, bordered by a small network of local roads including Steelhead Ave and Trout Ave. This 2014 survey documents the enduring physical geography of the peninsula, from the heights of the peaks to the shores of Dickey Lake and Thunder Lake.
