2000 Map of Mount Wow

About this map

The Mount Rainier National Park boundary defines the eastern half of this landscape, where the high ridges of Klapatche Ridge and Emerald Ridge overlook a network of glacial river valleys. A significant commemorative site, the Marine Memorial Airplane Crash Monument, sits near Round Pass, marking a point of interest for local history and aviation researchers. The terrain transitions westward into the Glacier View Wilderness, a region dominated by high peaks like Mt Beljica and isolated water bodies such as Lake George and Lake Christine. Drainage patterns are governed by the Puyallup River and Nisqually River, which are fed by numerous high-altitude cascades including Larrupin Falls and Ethania Falls. The presence of a Patrol Cabin and Patrol Cabin Shelter along the wilderness trails reflects the mid-century infrastructure managed by the Forest Service across the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.
