1957 Map of Lake Pleasant

About this map

The logging economy of the Olympic Peninsula is etched across this landscape in the mid-1950s, defined by a dense network of timber roads and specialized settlements. At the heart of the region, Tyee (Beaver PO) and Sappho serve as local hubs, while smaller outposts like Hoko Camp, Dickey Camp, and Old Royal mark the reach of forest operations. The area is heavily intersected by the remnants of industrial infrastructure, shown as numerous segments of Railroad Grade and Old Railroad Grade that once hauled timber to coastal mills. Beyond the work sites, local life is anchored by the Beaver School and the Clallam Honor Camp located near Charley Creek. The terrain is dominated by the high points of Ellis Mountain and Stolzenberg Mountain, with the pristine waters of Dickey Lake and the Soleduck River providing a sharp contrast to the surrounding working forest.
