2001 Map of Knowlton Knob

About this map

Knowlton Knob Lookout stands as a central vantage point over this rugged portion of the Okanogan National Forest at the turn of the 21st century. The landscape is defined by significant elevations such as Mount Leecher and Buckhorn Mountain, while drainage systems like French Creek and Swamp Creek carve through the high country. Historical industry is evidenced by the Gambles Mill (Site), marking the site of early timber or agricultural processing near Paradise Spring. To the south, the Indian Dan State Wildlife Area highlights a shift toward conservation and habitat management. Numerous water sources, including Russian Spring, Bock Spring, and Secret Lake, are mapped alongside practical range features like a Corral and Stock Tank, illustrating the dual use of these public lands for both resource extraction and wildlife preservation.
