2017 Map of Billy Goat Mountain

About this map

Okanogan National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape, defined by a complex network of ridges and glacial basins. The topographic survey centers on the namesake Billy Goat Mountain and the prominent Big Craggy Peak, illustrating a terrain where passage is restricted to established corridors such as Eightmile Pass and Three Fools Pass. A high-altitude drainage system is visible, with Upper Fox Lake and Lower Fox Lake feeding into Fox Creek, while numerous smaller basins like No Dice Lake and Fool Hen Lake dot the subalpine environment. Historical land use in the region is reflected in nomenclature such as Copper Glance Creek, suggesting the presence of early prospecting and mineral exploration. The map also delineates the Eightmile trail and Forest Development Road 5130, which provide the primary access into these back-country reaches within the Cascade Range.
