About this map

Pateros sits at the vital confluence of the Methow River and the Pateros River branch of Lake Columbia, serving as a central hub for the surrounding orchard and recreation lands. The landscape at the turn of the 21st century is defined by high-elevation peaks like Buckhorn Mountain and Goat Mountain, while the river valleys host essential infrastructure including a Pumping Station, Aqueduct, and several Gravel Pits.

Conservation and land management are prominent, with the Okanogan National Forest and the Pateros State Wildlife Area covering significant territory. Notable for local history and recreation, the map details the Alta Lake State Park area, complete with its Golf Course and nearby Alta Lake. Evidence of earlier industry persists in the hills, where Prospects and Mine Shafts are noted near the steep terrain of Rock Pinnacle.
