1965 Map of Labyrinth Mtn

About this map

Stevens Pass serves as the focal point of this high-altitude landscape, where the borders of Chelan, Snohomish, and King counties converge. The 1965 survey, updated in the late 1980s, highlights the critical transportation corridor provided by the Burlington Northern (Cascade Tunnel) and the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail. This area is defined by its collection of alpine lakes, including Minotaur Lake, Theseus Lake, and the remote Valhalla Lake, all situated within the sprawling reaches of the Wenatchee National Forest and Mt. Baker National Forest. High peaks like Labyrinth Mtn. and Lichtenberg Mtn. loom over the drainage basins of Nason Creek and the Little Wenatchee River, illustrating the complex hydrological network at the crest of the Cascades before the modern expansion of recreational infrastructure.
