2017 Map of Lightning Peak

About this map

Lightning Peak and the high ridges of the Olympic Mountains define this landscape within the Olympic National Forest. The map documents a complex network of forest development roads, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 23 Rd, which provide access to the timbered slopes and creek drainages. The shoreline of Lake Cushman occupies the northeastern corner, while the South Fork Skokomish River cuts through the southern terrain, fed by numerous tributaries including Brown Cr, Elk Cr, and Rock Cr. This 2017 survey illustrates the managed forest landscape and protected wilderness typical of western Mason County. The topography is marked by significant elevations like Timber Mtn and Dry Mtn, alongside localized landmarks such as Dennie Ahl Hill and Prospect Ridge.
