About this map

Lake Chelan dominates this landscape, serving as the primary transportation corridor for the settlement at Lucerne. In the early 21st century, this area remains defined by its isolation and the deep glacial waters that cut through the surrounding peaks. The map reveals the vital role of the Ferry system in connecting these remote points, including the Moore Point (Site) and the docks at Refrigerator Harbor.

Beyond the shoreline, the topography rises sharply toward Domke Mountain and Bearcat Ridge, with interior water features like Domke Lake and its Hatchery illustrating local land use within the Wenatchee National Forest. Protected wilderness areas, including the Lake Chelan Sawtooth Wilderness and Glacier Peak Wilderness, meet at these heights, where steep drainages like Cascade Creek and Domke Creek feed back into the main lake.
