1989 Map of Rat Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Rat Lake lies at the center of this Okanogan County landscape, part of a drainage system that includes Rowel Creek and Swamp Creek. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, rising toward Dent Mtn and Bald Knob, while deep cuts like Whitestone Canyon and Davis Canyon carve through the upland. This 1980s-era survey reveals a sparsely populated region primarily utilized for conservation and utility, evidenced by the expansive Indian Dan State Wildlife Recreation Area and a Radio Facility located near the ridge. Small indicators of local history appear in the form of a lone Cem and scattered Corral sites, suggesting a legacy of ranching and early settlement amidst the Harmony Heights ridgelines. Water remains the primary focal point, from the small Starzman Lake to various springs and wells that support this arid interior environment.
