Clearcut

Maxwell Hill area, June 10, 2012.

Not far from this ridge on the early evening of Sept. 29, 1949 a C-82 "flying boxcar" from McChord Air Force base crashed near where the three counties share a point on the border killing all three crewman. For decades the burned out fuselage remained in the woods and the spot became known as "airplane crash" to locals, especially loggers and hunters.
