2013 Map of Newaukum Lake

About this map

Snoqualmie National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, where the headwaters of several major regional river systems emerge from the high ridges of Lewis County. The topography is defined by the divides between the Skookumchuck River, the W Fork Deschutes River, and the S Fork Newaukum River. High-altitude vantage points are marked by the Huckleberry Mountain Lookout and Newaukum Lookout, while prominent geological features like Rooster Rock and Lookout Peak provide landmark navigation points across the timbered terrain. A network of Forest Service development roads, such as Nat For Dev Rd 7112, provides the primary access to the remote Newaukum Lake and the deep drainage of Bear Canyon. The map reveals a specialized environment focused on resource management and fire lookout observation in the early twenty-first century.
