Grays Harbor and the Columbia River anchor this 1953 Army Map Service study of southwest Washington, capturing the region's industrial and timber-based economy at mid-century. The map traces the dense rail network connecting the Pacific coast to the interior, featuring the Northern Pacific RR and Union Pacific RR as they navigate the coastal ranges. Along the Chehalis River, the twin cities of Hoquiam and Aberdeen serve as primary maritime hubs, while further inland, the valley corridor between Centralia and Chehalis emerges as a critical transit point for north-south travel along U.S. 99.
