1990 Map of Bob Creek

About this map

Olympic National Park defines this 1990 survey of the Olympic Peninsula, centered on the winding corridor of the Queets River. This wilderness landscape is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Tshletshy Creek and Pelton Creek, which drain the prominent Tshletshy Ridge. The map captures a moment in the late twentieth century when human infrastructure was minimal, consisting largely of trails and remote outposts. A single structure, the Pelton Creek Shelter, is noted near the confluence of several streams, providing a rare point of reference for hikers and researchers tracking historical backcountry routes. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, with peaks and ridges overlooking narrow valleys carved by Bob Creek and its tributaries.
