About this map

The northern reaches of Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest converge on this 2020 map, where the complex hydrology of the Olympic Peninsula is the primary feature. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Hunger Mtn and Rugged Ridge, which shed water into a dense network of drainages including the Sitkum River and S Fork Calawah River. In the southern half of the quadrangle, the Bogachiel River system dominates, with Brush Cr and Elbow Cr feeding into the main valley.

Accessibility in this steep terrain is limited to significant wilderness corridors like the Pacific NW National Scenic Trail, which traverses the eastern sections. For historians and researchers, the map documents the modern footprint of the Clallam Co Jefferson Co border as it cuts through these protected lands. The presence of routes such as the Bogachiel River S Bank Trail and the S Snyder-Jackson Primitive Trail reflects the area's ongoing importance for backcountry navigation and forest management.
