1950 Map of Lake Crescent

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Lake Crescent dominates the central landscape of this 1950 survey, its deep waters flanked by the steep rising slopes of Pyramid Mtn and Sourdough Mtn. The map captures the boundary where the Olympic National Park meets the Olympic National Forest, illustrating a transition from preserved wilderness to managed timberlands. Along the northern shoreline, small settlements like Fairholm, Ovington, and Piedmont serve as entry points for the burgeoning mid-century outdoor recreation movement, while the Old Railroad Grade traces a path through the timber north of the lake.
