1950 Map of Joyce

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Lake Sutherland and the adjacent Snug Harbor sit at the center of this 1950s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by the transition from the Strait of Juan de Fuca shoreline into the high peaks of the Olympic National Park. The Elwha River corridor is particularly prominent, featuring the Lake Aldwell reservoir, the Olympic Water Power Plant, and the Elwha Ranger Station further south. This era shows the local infrastructure still oriented around timber and topography, with the Old Piedmont Railroad Grade and various trails like the Happy Lake Ridge Trail cutting through the dense forest. Small communities such as Joyce, Ramapo, and Maple Grove appear alongside rural landmarks including the Crescent School and Ocean View Cem. The northern coast is marked by distinctive points like Tongue Point and Observatory Point, which overlook a Restricted Anchorage in Freshwater Bay.
