About this map

Schafer Bros Logging Camp No 10 and Camp McDonald anchor the timber and agricultural landscape of Lewis County during the early 1940s. The region is defined by the convergence of the Chehalis River and the South Fork Chehalis River, which carved the valleys that carry the area's vital transportation corridors. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and Northern Pacific railroads parallel the water, connecting small settlements like Meskill, Adna, and Boistfort. This survey reflects an era of transition where early pioneering schools like Forest View Sch and Pleasant Grove Sch still served the rural population, while the Ocean Beach Highway signaled the growing importance of automotive transit. The presence of the Claquato Cem and the Rainbow Falls State Park provides important cultural and recreational landmarks for local history researchers.
