1953 Map of Lake Wooten

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The glacial landscape of the Kitsap Peninsula is on full display in this early 1950s survey, dominated by a series of kettle lakes and the northern reach of Hood Canal. Outdoor recreation and youth camps define the upland interior, with sites like the Girl Scout Camp on Bennettsen Lake and Camp Spillman situated among the timbered ridges. The Tahuya River and Dewatto River drain this lake-heavy terrain, which shows significant signs of managed forestry along the Long Merrill Plantation Road. Along the shoreline of the canal, small waterfront communities such as Sunbeach, Forest Beach, and Sunset Beach represent the mid-century development of the Mason County coast. Public recreation is anchored by Belfair State Park in the northeast and Twanoh State Park at the water's edge, reflecting the region's long-standing importance as a destination for maritime and forest activities.
