About this map

Olympic National Park defines this landscape of the high Olympics, where the headwaters of major river systems originate from steep glacial drainages. The map centers on the dramatic terrain surrounding Chimney Peak, a focal point between the Elwha River flowing north and the Upper Quinault River trending southwest. This topographic study, based on 1985 photography, illustrates the remote character of the interior park wilderness before modern digital mapping, highlighting the vital role of the Enchanted Valley Ranger Station as a primary backcountry outpost. The network of drainages including Hayes River, Godkin Creek, and Buckinghorse Creek reveals the complex hydrology of the range, with narrow valleys like Enchanted Valley serving as key corridors through the high peaks. The presence of Crystal Peak and O'Neil Peak underscores the verticality of the terrain, providing essential detail for researchers of Olympic Peninsula geography and wilderness management.
