1965 Map of Poe Mountain

About this map

Poe Mountain stands as a central peak at the intersection of several high-elevation boundaries within the Wenatchee National Forest. In the mid-1960s, this landscape was defined by the transition between the Glacier Peak Wilderness and the Henry M Jackson Wilderness, with the high peaks and ridges serving as the physical dividers for drainage basins like Cady Creek and the Little Wenatchee River. The map captures the remote nature of the Cascades during this era, showing a landscape primarily accessed via trails and seasonal sites.
