2011 Map of Corral Butte

About this map

Corral Butte stands as a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape within Okanogan County, where a network of seasonal camps and meadows defines the human presence. The distribution of sites like Irenes Camp, Wildhorse Camp, and Lost Spoon Camp suggests a history of livestock management and backcountry transit, reinforced by the presence of the Four Point Corral in the northeast. Water sources are abundant, with the headwaters of the Middle Fork Toats Coulee Creek and Twentymile Creek carving through the terrain. The presence of the Long Swamp Campground and the Long Swamp Trailhead indicates the area's role as a point of entry for forest recreation. Notable open areas such as Thirtymile Meadows and North Twentymile Meadows provide breaks in the wooded slopes of Thunder Mountain, marking a territory where the local economy and geography remain tied to the wilderness and traditional land use.
