1965 Map of Labyrinth Mtn

About this map

Stevens Pass serves as the focal point for this high-altitude survey of the North Cascades, documenting the critical transport corridor at the meeting of Wenatchee National Forest and Snoqualmie National Forest. The map captures the infrastructure of the era, showing the Burlington Northern Tunnel cutting through the mountain depths while the Old Cascade Highway and a Ski Lift mark the development of recreation and transit. The landscape is defined by its numerous alpine basins, including Minotaur Lake and Theseus Lake beneath Labyrinth Mtn. These remote waters, along with Lake Janus and Valhalla Lake, are connected by the Cascade Crest Trail, which follows the high ridges and county lines. A Gravel Pit and Radio Tower indicate small pockets of industrial activity amidst the summits of Lichtenberg Mtn and Jove Peak.
