About this map

Okanogan National Forest land defines the northern and eastern portions of this quadrangle, where high ridges like Blue Buck Mountain and Coyote Ridge overlook a network of alpine drainages. The landscape is marked by several significant water bodies and their associated infrastructure, including Davis Lake and the Davis Lake Dam, alongside Campbell Lake and Bonner Lake. These features, along with Cougar Lake, indicate a region heavily utilized for recreation and water management within the mountain environment.

A complex system of forest roads, such as Bear Creek Rd and Lester Rd, provides access to interior points like Cougar Flat and Beaver Campground. The southern boundary of the map follows the course of the Methow River, while numerous canyons, including Pipestone Canyon, Wolf Canyon, and Burns Canyon, cut through the terrain. This survey reflects the modern intersection of natural conservation and backcountry access in the early 21st century.
