2014 Map of Chelan Falls

About this map

The Columbia River serves as the dominant geographical divide on this map, separating Chelan County from Douglas County as it winds past the plateau of Howard Flats. In the western portion of the sheet, the settlement of Chelan transitions into the lower valley at Chelan Falls, where the Chelan River descends toward the main river channel. The landscape is defined by deep draws and canyons, including McNeil Canyon and Daybreak Canyon, which cut through the high terrain of Deer Mtn and Chelan Hill. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by the Chelan State Fish Hatchery and the Lake Chelan Airport. Genealogists may find interest in the location of Riverview Cem north of the river's bend. The map also documents recreational areas along the water, such as Beebe Bridge Park and Chelan Falls Park, situated where the river system supports both agriculture and local communities.
