2003 Map of Red Top Mountain

About this map

Wenatchee National Forest encompasses the high-elevation drainage systems of the upper Yakima River basin in this detailed 2003 revision. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of Teanaway Ridge, which separates the complex networks of the North Fork Teanaway River and South Fork Teanaway River. Centered on the namesake Red Top Mountain, the map reveals a wilderness area managed for both timber and recreation, anchored by the Guard Station near the river forks. Numerous seasonal and perennial watercourses like Jack Creek, Stafford Creek, and Indian Creek carve through the steep topography, reflecting the area's importance as a primary watershed. The map records the intersection of high mountain terrain with established Forest Service administrative boundaries and landmarks just north of the Fifth Standard Parallel North.
