2017 Map of Clark Mountain

About this map

Clark Mountain stands as a central topographic anchor on this high-elevation survey of the North Cascades, straddling the boundary of Snohomish and Chelan counties. The high-country terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including the Chiwawa River and the westward-flowing White River, which carve deep valleys between massive ridges like Chiwawa Ridge. Historical travel through these heights is marked by several notable crossings, most prominently Boulder Pass, High Pass, and Little Giant Pass. These routes provided the primary access through the Mount Baker and Wenatchee National Forests before more modern infrastructure. The map also identifies isolated landmarks such as Butterfly Butte and Buck Mountain, alongside remote water bodies like King Lake, offering a detailed view of the wilderness as it appeared in the early 21st century.
