About this map

The Victoria regional corridor serves as a maritime and terrestrial crossroads where the Strait of Juan de Fuca meets the Strait of Georgia. This mid-century survey documents the complex archipelago of the San Juan Islands and the coastal development of Whatcom and Skagit counties. Industrial markers of the era are prominent, including the Bellingham Coal Mine and the Anacortes Oil Refinery, while the Peace Arch at Blaine denotes the international boundary with British Columbia. On the Olympic Peninsula, Port Angeles Harbor and the northern reaches of Olympic National Park provide a backdrop to the maritime traffic lanes indicated by various ferry routes. The map traces the extensive rail networks of the Great Northern Railway and the Milwaukee Road, which linked the timber and agricultural resources of the Cultus Mountains and Mount Baker to the Puget Sound ports.
