1950 Map of Lake Crescent

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Lake Crescent dominates this mid-century survey, a deep glacial basin held within the Olympic National Park. The shoreline reflects a moment when local rail and early road networks coexisted, with the Port Angeles and Western railroad hugging the northern bank through Piedmont and westward past Ovington. This transit corridor was essential for the timber and tourism of the northern Olympic Peninsula before the complete dominance of the modern highway system.
