1959 Map of Squaxin Island

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Squaxin Island Indian Reservation and the surrounding inlets of the southern Puget Sound define this coastal landscape at the end of the 1950s. The map captures a complex network of waterways, where Pickering Passage, Peale Passage, and Squaxin Passage converge around Squaxin Island and Hartstene Island. The intersection of Mason Co and Thurston Co is marked by small coastal settlements like Arcadia and Boston Harbor, where the Boston Harbor Sch and a local Cem suggest established community life near the water. Marine navigation is prominent, evidenced by the Dofflemyer Point Lighthouse guarding Budd Inlet and the Marine RR near Arcadia. The transition from industrial or maritime use to residential growth is visible in the network of coastal roads like Agate Road and Boston Harbor Road serving the wooded points and coves.
