About this map

The settlement of Goose Prairie sits at the confluence of mountain waters where the Bumping River meets Thunder Creek, surrounded by the high-elevation protected lands of the William O Douglas Wilderness. This 2000 revision, updated by the Forest Service, captures a landscape defined by seasonal recreation and conservation. Several campgrounds, including Hells Crossing Campground and Pleasant Valley Campground, follow the corridor of the American River, which cuts a deep valley through the Mt Baker Snoqualmie National Forest.

High ridges and volcanic features dominate the terrain, notably the sharp summits of Fifes Peaks and the high points of Norse Peak. Numerous alpine water bodies, such as Crow Creek Lake and Sheepherder Lake, are scattered across the northern reaches near Fifes Ridge. The map identifies established sites like Camp Fife alongside various footbridges and trail networks, illustrating the area's role as a gateway for backcountry exploration between the national forest and wilderness areas.
