About this map

Okanogan National Forest covers this high-altitude landscape of the North Cascades, centered on the prominent massif of Robinson Mountain. The map illustrates a recreational and backcountry infrastructure existing in the early 1960s, featuring several established sites along the river corridors such as Ballard Campground and Rivers Bend Campground. The remote nature of the terrain is emphasized by the presence of the Lost River Landing Strip and primitive outposts like Porcupine Camp.

Drainage patterns are defined by the Methow River and its major tributaries, including the West Fork Methow River and Robinson Creek. While roads are minimal, the region is accessible via established paths such as the Monument Creek Trail and Driveway Butte Trail, which navigate between summits like Devils Peak and Beauty Peak. This survey provides a clear view of the wilderness management and resource extraction points, noted by the presence of a Gravel Pit near the valley floor.
