1944 Map of Holden

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The remote mining outpost of Holden sits deep in the high country, established near the significant Holden Mine along Railroad Creek. This survey, based on 1944 aerial photography, shows the industrial footprint of the era, including the Glacier Peak Mines and the Red Mountain Mine near the settlement of Trinity. The landscape is a high-altitude network of glaciers and sharp ridges, where the Crest Trail and Little Giant Trail provided the primary means of crossing the divide between the Chelan, Wenatchee, and Mount Baker National Forests. This map is particularly notable for its record of the Lyman Glacier and Entiat Glacier before mid-century changes, alongside landmarks like Bonanza Peak and Chiwawa Mtn. It documents the specific moment when high-mountain extraction and backcountry recreation, represented by Grouse Camp and McKenzie Camp, shared these remote valleys.
