1963 Map of Downey Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Mt Baker National Forest defines the high-country landscape on this mid-century survey, where the glacial drainages of Kindy Creek and Downey Creek converge toward the Suiattle River. The map documents a rugged wilderness era before modern road expansions, centered on the towering Mount Buckindy and Downey Mountain. For backcountry historians and geographers, the sheet identifies specific period infrastructure like the Sixmile Shelter and the Downey Creek Campground near the riverbanks. Geologic and recreational interests are highlighted by the remote Sulphur Hot Springs and a series of high-altitude alpine basins containing Bench Lake, Horse Lake, and Downey Lake. The northern boundary of the Skagit and Snohomish County line is depicted as an Indefinite Boundary as it traverses the high ridges near Green Mountain.
