About this map

McLeod Mountain and the high peaks of the Okanogan National Forest dominate this 1991 survey of north-central Washington. The terrain is defined by the sharp descent from the Pasayten Wilderness into the Methow Valley, where the Methow River flows past the Goat Wall. This provisional edition captures the landscape's transition from high alpine ridges like Setting Sun Mountain to the essential valley infrastructure, including the Lost River Landing Strip.

Strategic landmarks such as the Goat Peak Lookout provide a sense of the region's forest management history, while the extensive network of drainages—from the Lost River Gorge to Yellowjacket Creek—illustrates the complex hydrology of the eastern Cascades. The map also records early recreational and access points like Black Pine Lake and the Monument Trail, marking the boundary between managed timberland and protected wilderness.
