1950 Map of Twin Rivers

About this map

The Strait of Juan de Fuca dominates the northern half of this coastal survey, where its waters meet a shoreline characterized by expansive Tidal Flats. On land, the terrain rises into the northern reaches of the Olympic National Forest, a heavily forested landscape marked by sharp elevation changes and deep drainages. Movement through this coastal corridor is defined by the Port Angeles Neah Bay State Highway, which follows the contours of the coast and provides the primary transit link between these points. The map provides a look at the hydrography of the region just after mid-century, specifically where the West Twin River and East Twin River converge near the coast, and further east where Sadie Creek and Murdock Creek flow toward the strait. These watercourses were critical to the local geography before later 20th-century developments altered the road networks and forest management boundaries.
