About this map

Mineral and the smaller settlements of Carlson and Divide anchor this high-country landscape in Lewis County. Centered on Mineral Lake, the map documents a region defined by its timber and recreation history, where the Mineral Lake Dam and the Mineral Landing Strip serve as focal points for local infrastructure. The terrain rises sharply away from the lake, reaching the heights of Roundtop Mountain and Storm King Mountain, the latter topped by the Storm King Lookout.

A complex network of Forest Service roads, such as NFD 74 RD and N Mineral Rd, threads through the drainages of the Tilton River and Mineral Creek. These routes, along with names like Lutkins Rd and Naugle Rd, suggest a legacy of family settlement and mountain access. The map captures the watershed patterns where Roundtop Creek, Coal Creek, and Summit Creek descend from the ridges toward the valley floors.
