About this map

Okanogan Mountains and the international boundary with Canada define this high-elevation landscape as it appeared in the mid-1950s. The area is characterized by a dense network of pack trails and seasonal camps, reflecting a wilderness economy of grazing and forestry. Horseshoe Basin serves as a central geographic feature, surrounded by prominent peaks such as Arnold Peak and Snowshoe Mtn. The proliferation of named camps, including Louden Camp, Coyote Camp, and Lone Wolf Camp, suggests the importance of this region for backcountry access and livestock management within the Okanogan National Forest.
