1924 Map of Mt Rainier

About this map

Randle and the surrounding valley floor along the Cowlitz River anchor this mid-1920s survey, showing a landscape defined by timber management and early mountain access. The map reveals the early institutional footprint of the Rainier National Forest, with several field outposts such as the Packwood Ranger Sta, Skate Creek Ranger Sta, and the Bear Prairie Ranger Sta. Higher elevations are monitored from the Twin Sisters Lookout Sta and Kiona Pk Lookout Sta, highlighting the era's reliance on manned fire observation peaks.
