About this map

The Middle Fork Snoqualmie River and South Fork Snoqualmie River dominate this 2017 landscape, where the Cascades meet the developing outskirts of King County. Modern infrastructure like Interstate 90 and the Snoqualmie Valley Trl cuts through the terrain, connecting the residential areas of North Bend and Riverbend to the vast wilderness of the Snoqualmie National Forest. The map provides a detailed view of the water management infrastructure in the southern half, centered on the Masonry Pool and the extensive Chester Morse Lake reservoir, which is fed by numerous named creeks including Dumbarton Cr, Otter Cr, and Rack Cr.

High-elevation landmarks such as Mt Washington and Cedar Butte rise sharply above the river valleys, while smaller settlements like Tanner, Ragnar, and Sallal Prairie are situated along the primary transport corridors. The network of Forest Service roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 5010, highlights the area's role as a gateway for forestry management and outdoor recreation within the protected forest boundaries.
