1968 Map of Bead Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Kaniksu National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape along the Washington and Idaho border, where the terrain is dominated by the expansive basins of Bead Lake and Marshall Lake. The 1968 survey (photorevised in 1986) reveals a backcountry network of primitive routes and pack trails, including a Pack Trail winding through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. A unique scientific presence is found at the Newport Geophysical Observatory USGS, situated in the southwestern corner of the sheet. The hydrological pattern is intricate, with numerous named drainages such as West Branch Priest River and South Ole Creek feeding the region's prominent lakes. Prominent landmarks like Bead Lake Peak and Mosquito Point provide geographic orientation for those navigating the timbered slopes and high meadows like Daggett Meadow.
