1959 Map of Harts Lake

About this map

The Fort Lewis Military Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this 1950s survey, illustrating the significant military footprint in Pierce County during the mid-century era. Just south of the reservation line, rural life centers around the Lacamas Sch and the community of Troy, with family-named routes like Roy Christy Road and Allen Road threading through the timber and wetlands. The drainage pattern is defined by the winding Lacamas Creek and Horn Creek, which feed toward the Nisqually River on the western edge of the sheet.
