1953 Map of Lake Joy

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Tolt River and its various forks dominate this 1953 landscape in King County, illustrating a period of active timber management and early watershed infrastructure. The terrain is marked by the Tolt Truck Road and an Old Railroad Grade, tracing the paths of earlier industrial access into the highlands. Several small water bodies, including Lake Joy, Moss Lake, and Hull Lake, are primary landmarks amidst a network of drainage systems like Harris Creek and Griffin Creek. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is visible through a noted Mill near Stossel Road and multiple Gravel Pits. The map also captures the Pipeline corridor and various gaging stations, reflecting the region's importance for water resource management for the growing Puget Sound area during the mid-20th century.
