1999 Map of Eldorado Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Eldorado Peak and the surrounding high-elevation terrain of the North Cascades National Park dominate this survey, which captures the complex glacial systems of the late twentieth century. The map illustrates a landscape of ice and stone, where the Eldorado Glacier, McAllister Glacier, and Inspiration Glacier converge near distinctive spire formations like Dorado Needle and Tepeh Towers. Evidence of human industry appears at the Crescent Mine along Marble Creek, contrasting with the protected wilderness of the Mt Baker Snoqualmie National Forest to the south. The mapping of Hidden Lake and The Triad reflects the era's focus on defining recreation and conservation boundaries within the Cascades, tracing the drainage patterns of Roush Creek and the East Fork Newhalem Creek across the divide.
