About this map

Olympic National Forest dominates the western half of this landscape, where the peaks of Big Skidder Hill and Little Skidder Hill rise above the drainage of Snow Creek and Salmon Creek. Along the eastern edge, the Olympic Highway traces a corridor of settlement through the valleys of the Olympic Peninsula. Small communities like Uncas, Leland, and Maynard are clustered near the shores of Port Discovery and several freshwater bodies including Crocker Lake and Leland Lake. This mid-century view, updated with 1980s data, illustrates the transition from the dense timberlands to the rural homesteads and infrastructure serving the region. The map identifies specific local landmarks such as the Uncas Sch and a Gaging Sta, alongside the Little Quilcene River as it winds toward the south. The rugged topography of Cedar Flat and numerous creek systems like Andrews Creek and Trapper Creek show the complex watershed that defined local development during this era.
