1989 Map of Easton

About this map

The Yakima River corridors through the Cascade foothills define this 1989 provisional study, where the settlement of Easton serves as a central waypoint for mountain transit. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Wenatchee National Forest and Snoqualmie Nat For, with steep elevations rising toward Cabin Mountain and Easton Ridge. Transportation history is layered throughout the valley, from the Iron Horse State Pioneer Trail (Pacific Crest Trail) following old rail grades to the Easton Canal managing the region's water. Recreation and resource management intersect at Lake Easton State Park, while smaller landmarks like the hamlet of Tucker and the borrow pits near the river reflect the local footprint of industry and infrastructure in the late 20th century.
