1965 Map of Lone Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Gifford Pinchot National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, revealing a dense network of alpine lakes and volcanic topography. The map illustrates a transitional period of forest management where recreation and industrial utility intersect, evidenced by the proximity of the Lone Butte Quarry and Gravel Pit to numerous established recreation sites. High-elevation landmarks like Sawtooth Mtn and Bird Mountain rise above a complex hydrology of small water bodies, including Chenamus Lake, Cultus Lake, and the clustered Surprise Lakes. Extensive pathfinding systems such as the Cascade Crest Trail and the Cascade Heaven Trail suggest a landscape primarily accessed by foot or pack animal, while primitive roads reach into the Lone Butte area. This survey provides a precise look at the backcountry infrastructure of the southern Cascades before modern expansion altered these remote corridors.
