About this map

Nagrom sits as a notable location along the Green River in this mid-1980s provisional study, a point where historical industry met the protected wilderness of the Snoqualmie National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the steep ascent of Huckleberry Mountain and the deep cut of Green River Canyon, illustrating the challenging terrain that shaped early transportation and resource extraction in the region.

Evidence of local land use is visible in the scattered Quarry and Borrow Pit labels, alongside the extensive Transmission Lines that traverse the Green River Watershed (City of Tacoma). The map details the complex drainage systems of the Central Cascades, tracking Smay Creek, Wolf Creek, and Rock Creek as they feed into the Greenwater River and White River near the southern boundary. From the heights of Rooster Comb Mtn to the Watershed Divide at Williams Hole, this document records the intricate balance of municipal water protection and national forest management.
