2020 Map of Lake Chaplain

About this map

Lake Chaplain dominates the western portion of this landscape, serving as a primary reservoir for the city of Everett and illustrating the critical connection between the mountain watersheds and urban infrastructure. The Sultan River carves a deep path through the eastern terrain, winding past Horseshoe Bend as it flows south toward the settlements of Sultan and North Sultan. Much of the northern and eastern territory lies within the Snoqualmie National Forest, where steep elevations like Sultan Ridge and Haywire Ridge define the drainage patterns for numerous smaller bodies of water, including Lake Bronson and Japanese Lake. A complex network of service and logging roads, such as Lake Chaplain Rd and Diversion Dam Rd, provides access to these managed forest lands and water resources.
