USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Nisqually River delta and the expansive marshlands of the Tidal Flat define this landscape just after the mid-century. The area is dominated by the Fort Lewis Military Reservation, which encompasses a vast array of training grounds and geographic features, including the dense Argonne Forest and numerous named elevations like Newman Hill and Infantry Bluff. Settlement is concentrated at Dupont and Nisqually, with smaller coastal points like Lhur Beach tucked under Nisqually Head.
