1953 Map of Mt Tebo

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The South Fork Skokomish River carves through the central high country of the Olympic National Forest, revealing a landscape defined by 1950s logging operations and forest management. Working in conjunction with the U.S. Forest Service and the Simpson Logging Company, the survey documents a network of industrial infrastructure, including a Logging RR and the Bingham Cr Reload station. This era of heavy timber extraction is contrasted with a network of backcountry infrastructure for rangers and hikers, such as the Le Bar Guard Sta and several remote outposts like Camp Harps Shelter and Spider Lake Shelter. To the east, the waters of Cushman Lake and the Staircase Road represent the edge of recreational and civil development. The presence of the Simpson Lookout and Intermount Guard Sta reflects the vital fire surveillance required for such a densely forested and active timber production zone during the mid-century.
