About this map

Dutch Settlement lies in the southern reach of this survey, positioned near the headwaters of Pearson Cr and Naneum Cr. This high-elevation landscape is defined by the sharp divide between Chelan and Kittitas counties, where the Wenatchee National Forest spans a complex network of ridges and canyons. The terrain transitions from the high summits of Mission Peak and Wenatchee Mtn down into the deep drainages of Devils Gulch and King Canyon.

Water management and recreation are central to the area's character, evidenced by the cluster of reservoirs near Beehive Mtn, including Beehive Reservoir and the Hand H Reservoir Number One. For those tracing historical movement through these mountains, the Old Ellensburg Tr and Devils Spur indicate established routes through the Naneum Basin, while Clara Lake and Marion Lake provide focal points within the higher timberlands.
