About this map

The Canada United States of America border defines the northern edge of this high-elevation mountain environment, where the peaks of the North Cascades dominate the landscape. Within the protected boundaries of the Mount Baker National Forest and the Mount Baker Wilderness, the topography is characterized by steep summits like Mt Larrabee and American Border Peak. A network of recreational routes, including the Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail and the Yellow Aster Butte Trail, provides access to remote alpine features such as Tomyhoi Lake and Twin Lakes.

The drainage patterns of the North Fork Nooksack River and its tributaries, such as Anderson Creek and Ruth Creek, illustrate the complex hydrology of these glacial valleys. Distinctive landmarks like The Pleiades and the Nooksack Cirque emphasize the ice-carved nature of the terrain. This modern survey reflects the preservation of the Cascades, mapping a wilderness where human presence is limited to established trails and passes such as Gold Run Pass and Skagway Pass.
