1999 Map of Glacier Peak West

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the high alpine passes of the Cascade Range, marking a critical corridor through the Mt Baker - Snoqualmie National Forest. This landscape is defined by its dramatic glacial activity, including the White Chuck Glacier, Sitkum Glacier, and Scimitar Glacier, which feed the headwaters of the White Chuck River and the Sauk River. Historically significant backcountry landmarks such as Mackinaw Shelter and the Kennedy Hot Spring are located within the remote Glacier Peak Wilderness. These features illustrate the area's long-standing role as a destination for wilderness travel and high-altitude navigation. The map also delineates the high-elevation divide at White Pass and Red Pass, where the border between Snohomish Co and Chelan Co follows the jagged ridgeline near White Mountain. Small alpine bodies of water like Lake Byrne and Hardtack Lake dot the terrain, offering a look at the drainage patterns that characterize this glaciated environment.
