This detailed map depicts Washington (just five years after statehood) with its counties named and in contrasting pastel colors. Topographical features are well noted, with major railroads (each stop noted), lighthouses and water routes, islands, mountains (many with elevations noted) and rapids located. Indian Reservations, mining areas and Military Reservations are also shown. A very informative view of the area as it existed in the 1890’s.
