About this map

Glacier Peak serves as the focal point for this late-twentieth-century study of the high Cascades, where the Glacier Peak Wilderness straddles the boundary between Snohomish and Chelan counties. The landscape is dominated by a complex system of ice and water, including the Suiattle Glacier, Honeycomb Glacier, and the White River Glacier. These frozen features feed several major drainage systems, notably the Suiattle River and White River, which carve deep valleys away from the volcanic center. The map captures the specialized topography of high-altitude features like Thunder Basin and North Guardian Rock. To the south, the terrain descends toward Airplane Lake and Mt Saul within the Wenatchee National Forest, illustrating the transition from glacial ice to high-alpine forest environments prior to the turn of the millennium.
