1950 Map of Mount Carrie

About this map

Olympic Hot Springs and the surrounding peaks of the Bailey Range characterize this mid-century survey of the high Olympic interior. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Soleduck River and the Hoh River, connected by a network of wilderness routes including the Soleduck Trail and the prominent High Divide. The 1950 field check documents a series of backcountry refuges crucial for early park visitors, such as Boulder Lake Shelter, Sevenmile Shelter, and Heart Lake Shelter. Alpine features like Seven Lakes Basin and Mount Carrie dominate the central topography, while the boundary between Clallam Co and Jefferson Co runs across the southern slopes. This map records the established trail system and landmark falls, including Soleduck Falls, during a period of increasing recreational access to Olympic National Park.
