1942 Map of Mount Olympus

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

Mount Olympus towers over this mid-century survey, a landscape defined by permanent ice and the headwaters of major peninsula river systems. The Hoh River and Elwha River originate amidst the massive formations of the Hubert Glacier and Humes Glacier, which dominated the high country during this 1930s fieldwork era. Human presence is marked by isolated outposts like Michaels Ranch and Humes Ranch, along with the Olympus Guard Station, illustrating the early 20th-century transition from homesteading to federal wilderness management.
