1901 Map of Chelan
USGS Topo · Published 1907About this map
The Columbia River serves as a massive geographic divider in this late 19th-century survey, separating the high plateau of the Big Bend country from the steep peaks of the Entiat Mountains. On the eastern shore, the fledgling town of Waterville is established on a surveyed grid, while the western banks are dominated by the Washington Forest Reserve and the Wapato Indian Reservation. The map captures the early development of Lake Chelan at its southeastern foot, where Chelan and Lakeside were just beginning to take root as gateway settlements.
