1904 Map of Mount Aix

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

Fields Mine stands as a focal point of early resource extraction in this rugged section of the Cascades during the first years of the twentieth century. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Mount Aix and the Rattlesnake Peaks, where narrow trails provide the only passage through the Rainier National Forest. This era shows a scattered network of seasonal settlements and remote outposts such as Goose Prairie, Russell Ranch, and Mc Allister Meadows, which suggest a mountain economy revolving around grazing, trapping, and prospecting. To the north, the Bumping River flows from Bumping Lake, while unique geological formations like Meeks Table and Devils Table dominate the eastern ridges. The presence of numerous bench marks, such as B.M. 3407 near the lake house, reflects the detailed work of Topographer A.H. Sylvester as he documented this transition from wilderness to managed forest land.
