1952 Map of Potlatch

About this map

The Skokomish Indian Reservation occupies the fertile delta where the Skokomish River meets Annas Bay, anchoring the southern end of this mid-century survey. Further north, the sharp curve of Hood Canal at The Great Bend creates a dramatic transition from the tidal waters to the timber-rich slopes of Dow Mtn and the Olympic National Forest. Significant water resources are evident, from the reservoir of Lake Cushman to the smaller Old Hatchery Lake, reflecting the region's reliance on both maritime and inland hydraulics. Small communities like Hoodsport and Potlatch dot the shoreline, connected by coastal roads, while the educational landscape is marked by the Indian Sch, Skokomish Valley Sch, and Tahuya School. The interior reveals a dense network of upland lakes, including Cady Lake and Tee Lake, as the Northern Pacific railroad cuts through the southern terrain toward Oakland Bay.
