About this map

Ashnola Mountain and the surrounding high country of the Okanogan National Forest dominate this 1969 field-checked survey. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Pasayten Wilderness, where the East Fork Pasayten River and West Fork Pasayten River originate amidst high peaks and glacial features like McCall Gl. An extensive network of pack trails serves as the primary infrastructure, connecting remote points such as Bunker Hill and Sheep Mountain.

Glacial lakes are prominent throughout the terrain, most notably the string of Hidden Lakes—including Big Hidden Lake, Middle Hidden Lake, and First Hidden Lake—which sit in a deep basin below Middle Mtn. The map also captures the high-altitude Whistler Basin and Whistler Pass, providing a detailed record of the drainage patterns and topography along the international boundary between Washington and British Columbia.
