About this map

Quilcene serves as the primary hub of this Olympic Peninsula landscape just before the Second World War, situated where the Big Quilcene River and Little Quilcene River meet the tidal waters of Quilcene Bay. The map reveals a region defined by its timber and maritime resources, highlighted by the Mc Cormack Lumber Co and the presence of the US Fish Hatchery. Transport networks are transitioning, showing the Olympic Highway winding through the foothills while the Discovery Junction railroad connection links coastal settlements like Maynard and Uncas near the head of Discovery Bay.
