1907 Map of Mount Adams

About this map

Glaciers and alpine terrain dominate the high country around Mount Adams, where the ice of the Adams Glacier, Klickitat Glacier, and Mazama Glacier feeds a network of descending creeks. To the east, the landscape transitions into the high plateaus and ridges of the Yakima Indian Reservation, including the Lincoln Plateau and Lost Horse Plateau. This early twentieth-century survey captures a wilderness economy still defined by isolated outposts and livestock management, evidenced by numerous named enclosures like Vessic Corral, Swamp Corral, and Beard Corral.
