About this map

Mt Daniel and the surrounding peaks of the central Cascades dominate this high-elevation landscape, where the boundary between King and Kittitas counties follows the jagged alpine divide. This modern survey illustrates the complex relationship between receding ice and the resulting drainage patterns, featuring the Hinman Glacier and Lynch Glacier which feed the East Fork Foss River.

The area is defined by its extensive trail networks, including a significant stretch of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl. These routes connect remote alpine basins such as Jade Lake and Waptus Lake with prominent geographic landmarks like Cathedral Rock and Bears Breast Mtn. The map provides an essential record of the contemporary glaciology and wilderness hydrology within the Snoqualmie National Forest and Wenatchee National Forest.
