About this map

Bodie sits at the center of this mountain landscape within the Okanogan National Forest, a region defined by its history of extraction and its network of high-elevation drainages. The terrain is marked by significant peaks, including Cumberland Mountain, Irene Mountain, and Toroda Mountain, which feed numerous watercourses like Toroda Creek and Beaver Creek. A concentration of small lakes in the northwest, including Beth Lake and Little Beaver Lake, provides a focus for local recreation, as evidenced by the Boat Ramp at Beth Lake.

Evidence of the area's geological value is scattered across the topography, from a Gravel Pit to multiple Prospects and a Mine Prospect near the settlement. These small-scale mining features, paired with the remote Forest Service roads, trace a history of rugged local industry. The map illustrates a complex drainage system where creeks such as Vaughn Creek, Cache Creek, and Giveout Creek carve through gulches and canyons, creating the difficult geography that challenged early settlers and miners in this corner of Okanogan County.
