2011 Map of Azurite Peak

About this map

Cedar Crossing serves as a central point of reference in this high-altitude landscape of the North Cascades during the early twenty-first century. The area is defined by a intricate network of drainage systems, including the waters of Friday Creek, which carve through the steep terrain. This map provides a look at the land as managed by the US Forest Service, showing the intersection of natural watercourses and the limited human footprint of the period. Researchers of mountain geography will find the hydrography particularly useful for understanding the orientation of local valleys and peaks in the Whatcom County backcountry.
