1963 Map of Azurite Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The high mountain mining operations of Mt Baker National Forest and Okanogan National Forest are documented in this 1963 field survey. The rugged landscape is defined by its deep vertical relief and the presence of significant mineral claims, notably the Azurite Mine near Tailings and the North American Mine along the upper reaches of Mill Creek. The map records a transition in mountain access, illustrating the route of the Cascade Crest Trail as it follows the high ridgelines between Azurite Peak and Mt Ballard. These peaks and the surrounding ridges, like McKay Ridge and Majestic Mountain, reveal a topography where early industrial extraction met the increasing interest in high-altitude wilderness recreation. Lower-elevation landmarks like Fourmile Camp and Cedar Crossing suggest the logistical challenges of reaching these remote mining sites before modern road developments.
