1990 Map of Mount Olympus

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Mount Olympus dominates this high-altitude survey, serving as the central massif for an extensive network of active ice fields. The map documents the convergence of several major glaciers, including the massive Blue Glacier and the Hoh Glacier, which feed the headwaters of the Hoh River. Remote alpine infrastructure is noted at Glacier Meadows, where a Shelter and established trails support mountaineers and researchers. The drainage patterns are clearly defined, showing how the South Fork Hoh River and the Queets River originate from these glacial melts. This 1990 provisional edition, based on late-1980s data, provides a detailed record of the ice extent and topographical relief of the East Peak and Middle Peak before modern shifts in alpine conditions. It captures the rugged character of the Olympic National Park backcountry, from the sheer heights of Snow Dome to the lower elevation Service Falls.
