2014 Map of Colonel Bob

About this map

Colonel Bob and the high ridges of the Olympic Mountains dominate this portion of the Olympic National Forest and Olympic National Park. The drainage basins of the W Fork Humptulips River and E Fork Humptulips River define the local topography, carving deep valleys between named heights like Gibson Peak and Stovepipe Mtn. This landscape is characterized by its network of forest development roads, including Natl Forest Develop Road 2204 RD, which provide access to backcountry landmarks such as Campbell Shelter and East Fork Shelter. The map documents the intricate creek systems feeding the larger rivers, with Petes Cr and Gibson Cr navigating the steep descent from Quinault Ridge toward the lowlands. Near the southern boundary, Fitzgerald Peak stands as a prominent marker above the headwaters of Big Cr.
