About this map

Boulder River Wilderness and Mount Baker National Forest define the geography of this high-elevation region in Snohomish County. The landscape is a network of steep peaks and deep drainages, where the Boulder River and its numerous tributaries like Montague Creek and French Creek carve through the Cascades. Settlement is non-existent in this protected corridor, which instead focuses on primitive access via the Boulder River Trl and the Saddle Lake/Via Meadow Mtn Trl.

Evidence of the area's geological diversity is found in the high-country basins that hold Bandana Lake, Tupso Lake, and Saddle Lake. Notable summits like Meadow Mtn, Mt Ditney, and Olo Mtn provide significant relief, while the southern boundary is marked by the Green Mountain Rd, which provides one of the few vehicular access points into this otherwise roadless backcountry. The map captures the watershed divide between the North Fork Canyon Creek and the South Fork Canyon Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of the western North Cascades.
