2023 Map of Old Scab Mountain

About this map

Old Scab Mtn and Little Bald Mtn dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Snoqualmie National Forest, a terrain defined by the protected expanses of the William O Douglas Wilderness. The movement of water through this high country is captured in the network of the American River and Bumping River, which feed into the prominent Bumping Lake. The map reveals a specialized recreational and transit infrastructure, including the Chinook Pass Highway and a Ski Bowl tucked near American Fork. Natural features like Soda Springs and Cedar Springs denote the hydrological variety of the region, while an extensive trail system including the American Ridge Trl and Nile Ridge Trl connects the various peaks and valleys, illustrating how this wilderness has been navigated and managed in the modern era.
