1989 Map of Mount Christie

About this map

Mount Clifty stands at the intersection of high ridges and deep river drainages within the Wenatchee National Forest and Snoqualmie National Forest. This 1989 provisional map documents a wilderness landscape defined by the upper reaches of the Little Naches River, where seasonal meadows like Mathew Meadow and Longmire Meadow break up the timbered terrain. The presence of the Taneum Shelter, Naches Pass Campsite, and Crow Creek Campground indicates the area's established role for backcountry travel and recreation, supported by a network of 4wd tracks and foot trails. In the southwest, the Norse Peak Wilderness boundary marks a transition into more protected territory. The map also records localized industrial activity along the river corridors, including a Borrow Pit and several Gravel Pits, likely used for the maintenance of forest access roads.
