About this map

Mineral and its eponymous Mineral Lake serve as the focal point of this Lewis County survey, which documents the area's transition into the Snoqualmie National Forest. The settlement pattern follows the drainages of the Tilton River and Mineral Creek, with small hamlets like Pleasant Valley and Carlson connected by rural routes such as Pleasant Valley Rd and Mineral Rd N. Genealogists will find the Mineral Cem positioned just south of the lake, an important site for family history in this timber-rich region.

The topography is dominated by significant peaks, including Storm King Mtn and Roundtop Mtn, with a dense network of waterways like Roundtop Cr and N Fork Mineral Cr carving through the landscape. The boundary of the national forest encompasses much of the southwestern quadrant, illustrating the vast public land management that characterizes this portion of Washington. The detail includes numerous mountain streams such as Soap Cr and Gallup Cr, which define the drainage basins across this mountainous terrain.
