2004 Map of Lake Wenatchee

About this map

Lake Wenatchee sits at the heart of this North Cascades landscape, serving as the terminal point for the White River and Little Wenatchee River. The topography is dominated by the massive presence of Dirtyface Mountain and Nason Ridge, which define the drainage basins for numerous mountain streams like Roaring Creek and Butcher Creek. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the small settlement of Merritt provides a focal point for researchers of regional transport history, situated along the corridor that includes the Stevens Pass Greenway and Nason Creek. High-altitude landmarks such as Alpine Lookout and Round Mountain underscore the prominence of the Wenatchee National Forest management in this era. For recreation history, the inclusion of Camp Zanika Lache and the Glacier View area offers specific data on shoreline development and forest access in the early 2000s.
