2014 Map of Hozomeen Mountain OE N

About this map

The international border between Canada and the United States defines this survey, marking the jurisdictional transition between Washington and British Columbia. This area within Whatcom Co is dominated by a complex network of unnamed drainage systems and river valleys that flow through the high-elevation terrain of the North Cascades. The map’s focus on the boundary line illustrates the remote nature of this wilderness region, where human infrastructure is largely absent in favor of natural hydrological features. The detail provided by the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Forest Service emphasizes the administrative and natural landscape along the 49th parallel during the early twenty-first century.
