1971 Map of White River Park

About this map

Mount Rainier National Park dominates the southern landscape of this 1971 survey, where the White River carves a deep valley between the Sourdough Mountains and Sunrise Ridge. This area serves as a primary gateway to the park's alpine features, centered around the development at Yakima Park and the spectacular overlook at Sunrise Point. The map captures the infrastructure of forest management and early tourism, including the White River Ranger Station, a Patrol Cabin, and the State Highway Maintenance Sta along the river corridor.
