About this map

Suiattle River drainage basin defines this high-elevation landscape within the Mt Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, where the transition from river valley to alpine peaks is marked by extensive trail networks and forest service infrastructure. The presence of the Suiattle Guard Station and established campsites like Buck Creek Campground reflects the mid-century development of backcountry recreation and forestry management in the North Cascades.

Elevations rise sharply from the riverbank toward the massive bulk of Huckleberry Mountain and Hurricane Peak. This terrain is dotted with high-mountain lakes, including Crater Lake, Lake Kawkawyak, and Lake Toketie. The boundary between Skagit and Snohomish counties bisects the southern portion of the map, tracing the high ridges above Buck Creek. The map also details early access routes like the Huckleberry Trail and the Green Mtn Road, documenting the primary corridors for early 20th-century exploration and resource management.
