1999 Map of Gamma Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Gamma Hot Springs lies at the heart of this high-alpine landscape within the Glacier Peak Wilderness, where geothermal activity meets glacial ice. The survey documents the drainage systems of the Suiattle River, fed by an array of ice fields including the Ptarmigan Glacier, Kennedy Glacier, and Dusty Glacier. High-altitude features like Gamma Peak and Kennedy Peak dominate the southern reach, while the north is defined by the steep corridors of Bath Creek and Canyon Creek. Human passage through this environment is primarily represented by the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, which winds across Miners Ridge near Image Lake. The map details a complex network of ridges, including Vista Ridge and Middle Ridge, which illustrate the extreme topography that has limited permanent development in this portion of the Mt Baker - Snoqualmie National Forest.
