1956 Map of Mount Olympus

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The crest of Mount Olympus dominates this mid-century survey of the high interior Olympics, where the Hoh River and Elwha River drainages diverge. The landscape is defined by massive glacial features like the Snow Dome and Blizzard Pass, which feed the river systems below. Evidence of early wilderness management and human activity appears in the network of remote shelters and family outposts, including Michaels Ranch and Humes Ranch along the Elwha. The presence of Lake Mills and the Hurricane Hill Lookout indicates the growing infrastructure for resource monitoring and early park visitation during the 1940s and 1950s.
