Commencement Bay and the growing port of Tacoma serve as the western anchor for this late nineteenth-century landscape, where river valleys meet the deep waters of Puget Sound. The map reveals a complex web of industrial and cultural boundaries, most notably the Muckleshoot Indian Reservation and Puyallup Indian Reservation. To the east, the terrain rises into the coal-rich foothills where rail lines like the Northern Pacific Railway and the St. Paul and Minneapolis Ry. connect mining settlements such as Black Diamond, Wilkeson, and Carbonado to the coast.
