1989 Map of Bearpaw Mountain

About this map

The North Fork Nooksack River carves a deep path through this section of Whatcom County, creating a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and essential water resources. Near the southern edge of the map, industrial and utility footprints appear at the Nooksack Power Plant and a Gage Station, positioned downstream from the landmark Nooksack Falls. This area serves as a primary drainage basin for the surrounding heights, with numerous named tributaries such as Wells Creek, Deadhorse Creek, and Fossil Creek feeding into the main river channel.
