1949 Map of Holden

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Holden and its namesake Holden Mine anchor this mid-century survey of the high Cascades, where industrial extraction meets a landscape dominated by permanent ice. The map documents a rugged interior economy based on mineral wealth, evidenced by the presence of the Glacier Peak Mines on Miners Ridge and the Red Mountain Mine near Trinity. These outposts are connected by a network of trails and narrow valley routes, such as the one following Railroad Creek towards the village. The terrain is defined by massive glacial systems, including Lyman Glacier and Entiat Glacier, which feed the headwaters of the Chiwawa River and the Entiat River. Notable landmarks such as Bonanza Peak and Mt Maude tower over high-altitude basins like Entiat Meadows, illustrating the complex topography of the Chelan National Forest and Wenatchee National Forest.
