1984 Map of Gunderson Mtn

About this map

Gunderson Mtn and Nelson Hill overlook a complex watershed in the northwest Olympic Peninsula, defined by the convergence of the Middle Fork Dickey River and the East Fork Dickey River. The terrain is marked by numerous industrial Borrow Pit excavations and an extensive network of old railroad grades, signaling the region's history with timber and resource extraction. Evidence of earlier occupation is found at Dickey Camp (Site), located near the shore of Dickey Lake. To the southeast, the landscape transitions into the broader Soleduck Valley, where Maxfield Prairie sits alongside the Soleduck River. This 1984 survey captures the area as it transitioned from early twentieth-century logging toward modern recreational use, indicated by the Boat Ramp near the highway.
