Using a pickax in making a pipeline, Tumwater CCC camp

    Could this be the construction of the Olympic National Park Headquarters, near Port Angeles, Washington? Story here. My first assumption was that this was Tumwater, Washington, just south of Olympia. But there is a Tumwater Creek that runs through the site of the park hq, which was built using CCC crews.

    Good question. We included all the information given to us by Jerry Williams, the man who collected/assembled the pictures (and the retired US Forest Historian), but in this case an exact location might be hard to determine... Unless someone recognizes the man in the picture!

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called CCC Architecture, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    This is what I fear is lost. My hope is that people will post pictures of these things today and we can link them through the comments. They made so many wonderful things for us to enjoy. So many of their projects are being lost, forgotten, rebuilt and destroyed. I feel an urgency to get people to seek out and photograph these bits of our history. Hi, I'm an admin for a group called CCC, Civilian Conservation Corps Photos, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    What I find so amazing about these photos is how similar the stone/rock work is!!! If you look at the stones used on this bridge and the ones in my photos they look like the same ones. I bet they are even the same colors!! In the FDR Park here in Georgia, it is filled with works by the CCC Camps. I only live 12 miles from it and just love to go and look at the craftsmanship there!! This is just an amazing photo and work!! I would love to see more work and bridges like this around our United States!!!

    The work the CCC boys did in Oregon is really quite amazing, including building in the Multnomah Falls area -- which we all appreciate!

    Hello, I am writing up the history for the Naches Ranger Station and would like to use your photo. Do you have any additional information on the picture?
