About this map

Okanogan National Forest and Wenatchee National Forest converge in this high-elevation landscape, where the northern tip of Lake Chelan begins to shape the local geography. The map reveals a complex network of recreational trails and forest roads, including Echo Ridge Trl, Somewhere To Ride Trl, and The Shoe Trl, which navigate the steep terrain around Cooper Ridge and Washington Butte.

Settlement patterns are concentrated in the lower elevations of Union Valley, where a grid of rural routes like School House Rd, Saw Mill Rd, and Bramble Ln suggest a history of early timber and agricultural activity. The presence of numerous land grants, such as PB 54 and PB 47, alongside drainages like Antoine Creek and Bergman Gulch, provides a clear view of how public and private lands were partitioned in this part of Washington.
