1955 Map of Wynoochee Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Wynoochee River and its numerous tributaries dominate this 1950s landscape, illustrating the critical role of water management and timber extraction in western Washington. A Logging Railroad snakes through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, serving the industry alongside routes like Kelly Road and Matlock Road. The map documents early infrastructure such as a Pipeline, Tunnel, and a Siphon, while the Wynoochee Grange and a local Cem mark the community's social and historical footprint. Towards the south, Sylvia Lake State Park and Sylvia Lake offer a point of recreation amidst the working forest. Fire prevention and surveillance are evident through the presence of elevated vantage points at Prices Peak 730 Lookout and the McCray Lookout, while the Pumping Station and Gaging Sta near Geisler Creek reflect the area's active hydraulic monitoring.
