2023 Map of Indian Pass

About this map

The Olympic Mountains dominate this high-elevation terrain where the headwaters of several major river systems originate. The map documents a complex protected landscape, illustrating the boundaries where Olympic National Forest meets the strictly preserved Olympic National Park and the even more remote Olympic Wilderness. Water is the defining feature of the topography, with the Sitkum River and South Fork Calawah River carving deep drainage patterns across the northern and central sections. To the south, the Bogachiel River flows near the county line, joined by tributaries like Boulevard Creek. Recreational and transport infrastructure is limited to significant corridors like the Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trl and the Sitkum Soleduck route, highlighting the area's role as a preserved natural sanctuary near Rugged Ridge.
