1965 Map of Monte Cristo

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Monte Cristo serves as the focal point for this survey of the high Cascade Range, marking a storied mining district at the headwaters of the South Fork Sauk River. The map illustrates a landscape where industrial history and mountain geography are inextricably linked, evidenced by former mining hubs like Mineral City and Galena. These sites are reached via rugged routes such as the Monte Cristo Trail, which traverses the high passes between the Mt Baker National Forest and Snoqualmie National Forest. High-altitude basins and jagged summits, including Del Campo Peak and Silvertip Peak, surround deep alpine waters like Silver Lake and Foggy Lake. The drainage patterns show the divide between northern and southern watersheds, with the North Fork Skykomish River carving through the southern reaches of the quadrangle.
