1944 Map of Lucerne

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Lake Chelan serves as the central artery of this 1944 survey, where the only transit to remote outposts like Lucerne and Moore is the designated Steamer Route to Chelan. This reliance on water transport defines the era's mountain life, connecting isolated settlements to the world beyond the Entiat Mountains. Further inland, the map captures the labor-intensive management of the Wenatchee National Forest, shown through sites like the Cottonwood Guard Sta and Cedar Camp. The topography is defined by high alpine features such as Cardinal Peak and Milham Pass, while industrial activity is represented by the Edit Mine near Railroad Creek. The drainage patterns are complex, with Domke Falls and numerous glacial lakes like Myrtle Lake and Larch Lakes feeding the river systems during this mid-century period of forestry and mineral exploration.
