1970 Map of Mount Adams West

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Mount Adams Wilderness defines the dramatic landscape of this 1970 survey, where the icy reaches of Adams Glacier and White Salmon Glacier meet the western slopes of the Cascades. The map captures a transition from alpine glaciers to the dense timber of Gifford Pinchot National Forest, marked by numerous backcountry outposts like Graveyard Camp, Riley Camp, and Meadow Camp. Evidence of the region's volcanic past is visible in features such as Lava Creek, while the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the high country past Lookingglass Lake and Horseshoe Meadow. Along the southern boundary, the White Salmon River and Morrison Creek Campground represent the accessible fringes of this high-elevation terrain.
