1919 Map of Port Crescent

About this map

Port Crescent sits at the edge of Crescent Bay on this 1919 survey, representing a transitory moment in Clallam County's coastal development. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Juan de Fuca Strait to the steep peaks of Mt Storm King and the Baldy Ridge. Transportation networks are in a state of flux, with the Seattle Port Angeles Western RR cutting across the foothills to serve timber interests and settlements like Joyce and Ramapo. Inland, the map captures the rural infrastructure of the era, including the State Fish Hatchery on the Elwha River and isolated educational sites like Dry Creek School and Eden School. The inclusion of Lake Crescent and Lake Sutherland shows the emerging recreational and transit corridor along the Olympic Highway, while the vast Olympic National Forest dominates the southern reaches.
