1989 Map of Bacon Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Baker Lake and its northern inflow from the Baker River dominate the northern portion of this 1989 survey, where the waters are contained within the Mt Baker National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its transition between protected lands, including the Noisy-Diobsud Wilderness and the North Cascades National Park. The topography is marked by significant peaks such as Bacon Peak, Mt Watson, and Hagan Mtn, while the drainage basins of Noisy Creek and Diobsud Creek carve deep into the mountain sides. For those studying the hydrology and land management of the Skagit and Whatcom county line, the map identifies numerous high-mountain water bodies including Watson Lakes, Anderson Lakes, and the secluded Edgar Lake. The lack of road development throughout the center of the quadrangle highlights the preserved state of the wilderness areas at the end of the 1980s.
