1970 Map of Blue Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Gifford Pinchot National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, which is defined by the high elevations of Blue Lake Ridge and prominent summits like Twin Sisters and Castle Butte. At the heart of the area, Blue Lake serves as a focal point for recreation, supported by the Blue Lake Creek Campground and Blue Lake Camp Picnic Area. The terrain is deeply carved by the North Fork Cispus River and its numerous tributaries, including Smoothrock Creek and Jackpot Creek. The map documents a rugged wilderness network before modern development, relying on a system of pack trails such as the Pompey Peak Trail to navigate the steep drainages. A notable footbridge crosses the water near the lake outlet, while small-scale industrial presence is limited to a single Gravel Pit along the river valley floor.
