2014 Map of Bob Creek

About this map

The Queets River basin flows through the heart of Olympic National Park in this remote section of Jefferson County. The terrain is defined by the steep elevation changes of the Olympic Mountains, where high points like Tshletshy Ridge divide numerous drainages including Slate Cr, Harlow Cr, and Tshletshy Cr. Human presence is minimal, represented primarily by backcountry trail infrastructure such as the Bob Creek Shelter and Pelton Creek Shelter. The map illustrates a landscape of dense timber and complex hydrology, where Bob Cr and Paradise Cr contribute to the larger river system. This 2014 survey documents the wilderness character of the Olympic Peninsula, focusing on the natural watercourses and topography that have remained largely unchanged by modern development.
