1953 Map of Maxwelton

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The southern tip of Whidbey Island dominates this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by its saltwater interfaces and small coastal settlements. In the early 1950s, the community of Maxwelton sits as a focal point on the western shore near Indian Point, while the southeastern corner is anchored by the settlement of Possession. The geography is notable for its substantial water bodies, including the wide expanse of Useless Bay and the more sheltered Cultus Bay. Internal landmarks like Deer Lagoon, separated by a levee and Tide Gate, show the ongoing management of the island's low-lying coastal marshes.
