About this map

Olympic Hot Springs and the surrounding wilderness of Olympic National Park define this high-altitude landscape. The topography is dominated by the Bailey Range, featuring prominent peaks such as Mount Carrie and Mount Fairchild, alongside the moving ice of Carrie Glacier and Fairchild Glacier. This survey captures the intricate network of glacial meltwater and alpine lakes that feed the Sol Duc River and the Hoh River.

A system of primitive shelters and trails, including the Boulder Lake Trail and Hoh River Trail, provides the primary means of navigating the High Divide. The map documents established backcountry sites like the Boulder Lake Shelter, Heart Lake Shelter, and the Campground near the hot springs. From the Seven Lakes Basin to the meadows of Solduc Park, the layout reflects a mid-century preservation of the Olympic interior, where geographic features like Appleton Pass remained vital landmarks for traverse.
