Camp Six Logging Museum |
Come enjoy a portion of Washington State's history from the 1880's through the 1940's as it pertains to the "Steam Era of Logging". With photographs, paintings, artifacts and equipment displays, Camp 6 takes the visitor back in time from when horse and ox teams hauled out the timber up through the last days that steam powered "Donkeys" and Railroads worked the woods. Visitors will see first hand what life in the logging camps and woods of Western Washington was like.
Located on a 14 acre forested site inside Point Defiance Park, and listed on the National Register of Historic Place, Camp 6 is a place for all to visit.
Admission to the Museum's grounds is free all year round. Indoor/outdoor exhibits. Also offering Summer Logging Train Rides operating on Saturdays, Sundays & Labor Day. Admission charged for train rides.
