1928 Map of Mt Rainier

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

Mt Rainier and its glacial ice fields dominate this 1924 survey, which highlights the early infrastructure of Mount Rainier National Park before the modernization of the mid-20th century. The map carefully details the early access points of the era, including the Nisqually Park Entrance Ranger Station and the Longmire Superintendents Headquarters. Outside the park boundaries, the Cowlitz River valley shows a landscape of small settlements and local education hubs like the Siler School and Cora School near Randle. This document provides a look at the region when the Mather Memorial Parkway and West Side Highway were the primary arteries into the high country. Natural features like Ohanapecosh Hot Springs and Packwood Lake are documented alongside specialized ranger outposts such as the Bear Prairie Ranger Station, reflecting the early management of the surrounding Rainier National Forest.
