About this map

Bauerman Ridge dominates this high-altitude landscape along the international border in the Okanogan National Forest. This 2014 survey documents the headwaters and drainages of the Chewuch River, which is fed by numerous alpine tributaries including Tungsten Cr, Haig Cr, and Windy Cr. The naming conventions throughout the quadrangle, such as Scheelite Lake and Scheelite Pass, suggest a history of tungsten mining exploration in this part of Okanogan County.

High-country travel is centered on the Pacific NW National Scenic Trail, which winds past landmarks like Teapot Dome and Haig Mtn. Though largely undeveloped, the map identifies specific points of human activity and seasonal habitation such as Dome Camp and the clearing at Vic Meadow. The varied terrain is marked by numerous basins and small alpine water bodies, including the secluded Pocket Lake.
