About this map

Salmon La Sac sits at the convergence of mountain waters and forest management in this early 21st-century record of the Cascades. The map details the local infrastructure supporting this seasonal outpost, including the Salmon La Sac Guard Station, a Sewage Disposal Pond, and a Water Treatment Plant. The landscape is dominated by high peaks such as Goat Mountain and Davis Peak, which define the topography between the Cle Elum River and the Waptus River.

Evidence of resource extraction and alpine exploration appears through numerous Adit and Prospect labels scattered across the ridges, particularly near Huckleberry Mountain. The boundary of the Alpine Lakes Wilderness carves through the terrain, protecting high-elevation basins like Moonshine Lake and Lake Michael. This survey reflects a moment when wilderness conservation and forest service operations intersected in the northern reaches of the Wenatchee National Forest.
