About this map

Pasayten Wilderness and the Okanogan National Forest dominate this high-elevation landscape, captured during a 1969 field check. The terrain is defined by prominent summits such as Billy Goat Mtn and Big Craggy Peak, with several mines located near Eightmile Creek. The drainage patterns are clearly marked by high-altitude waters like Lower Fox Lake and No Dice Lake, while several high passes like Billy Goat Pass and Three Fools Pass indicate the primary routes through the peaks.

Transportation through this wilderness at the end of the 1960s relied on a network of pack trails, with very few mechanized routes such as the jeep trail appearing near Copper Creek. The presence of the LO Camp and the Billy Goat Corral suggests a land used for both forest management and seasonal grazing, while Isabella Ridge and Burch Mountain serve as significant landmarks for those navigating these remote Cascades reaches.
