About this map

Kachess Lake and the smaller Little Kachess Lake dominate this portion of the Wenatchee National Forest, where steep ridgelines descend into glacial valleys. The settlement of Lake Easton sits at the southern end of the sheet, serving as a gateway to the mountains where Kachess River Rd and Lake Ridge Rd provide access to the waterfront. The surrounding peaks, including Amabilis Mtn, Thorp Mtn, and Domerie Peak, define the watershed for numerous creeks like French Cabin Creek and Silver Creek.

Infrastructure in the lower valley is anchored by the Easton State Airport and the historic route of the Iron Horse Trl, which follows the old rail corridor through the pass. High-altitude landmarks such as the Kachess Beacon and French Cabin Basin offer points of interest for backcountry navigation. In the southeastern corner, the outskirts of Roslyn and the prominence of Mt Baldy mark the transition toward the mining and timber lands of the Teanaway area.
