2017 Map of Mount Tom

About this map

Olympic National Park encompasses the entirety of this high-elevation terrain, dominated by the massif of the Olympic Mountains. The landscape is defined by its massive glaciated peaks and the origins of major river systems. Mount Tom stands as a primary landmark in the eastern section, situated near the headwaters of Mount Tom Creek and the ice of White Glacier. The drainage patterns here are distinct, with the Hoh River carving through the northern valleys while the South Fork Hoh River flows across the southern reaches of the quadrangle. High-altitude hydrology is further represented by remote water bodies such as Dragon Lake and multiple alpine streams including Slate Cr and Lake Cr. This survey illustrates the protected wilderness character of Jefferson County's interior, showing a landscape where geological features like Hoh Peak serve as the primary navigational markers in the absence of human settlements or road networks.
