About this map

Wenatchee National Forest dominates this Kittitas County landscape, defined by a network of high-elevation peaks and glacial lakes. Centered on Davis Peak, the area serves as a significant drainage basin for the Cle Elum River, Cooper River, and the Waptus River. The map documents a rugged alpine environment where Lake Michael, Opal Lake, and Moonshine Lake sit beneath summits like Goat Mountain and Huckleberry Mountain.

Evidence of historical resource extraction is preserved through labels for the Camp Creek Mine and the Elsinor Mine, connected by routes such as the Mine To Market road. The southeast corner features the prominent Jolly Mountain and Sasse Mountain, while the northern reaches include the high-altitude Skookum Basin. These features illustrate the intersection of conservation land management and the region's earlier mining prospects within the Cascades.
