About this map

Old Baldy Mountain and the high ridges of the Cascades dominate this 2017 study of the mountainous terrain where Snoqualmie National Forest meets the northern boundary of Mount Rainier National Park. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage systems, including S Prairie Cr and its tributaries, E Fork S Prairie Cr and S Fork S Prairie Cr, alongside Wilkeson Cr. These waterways carve through the elevations marked by The Three Sisters and Carbon Ridge.

Upper Fairfax serves as a lone named settlement point near the Carbon River in the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map documents an extensive network of forestry access, specifically numerous National Forest Development Roads such as Nat For Dev Rd 7710 and Nat For Dev Rd 7730. These routes provide the primary infrastructure for navigating the steep slopes between Burnt Mtn and Gale Cr.
