1957 Map of Victoria

About this map

Orcas Island, San Juan Island, and Lopez Island anchor this coastal landscape, illustrating the intricate geography of the San Juan archipelago along the maritime border with Canada. On the mainland, the Great Northern and Northern Pacific railroads facilitate the movement of goods between ports like Bellingham and Everett. The strategic military presence in the late 1950s is evident through installations such as the Whidbey Island Naval Air Sta and coastal fortifications like Ft Worden Mil Res and Ft Flagler Mil Res guarding the entrance to Puget Sound. To the south, the massive expanse of the Olympic Mountains and Olympic National Park defines the peninsula, while tribal lands including the Tulalip Indian Reservation and Lummi Indian Res reflect the enduring heritage of the region's original inhabitants.
