2017 Map of Rocky Reach Dam

About this map

Rocky Reach Dam serves as the central anchor of this 2017 landscape where the Columbia River forms the border between Chelan and Douglas counties. This engineering landmark creates Lake Entiat, a significant reservoir that reshapes the local geography near the settlements of Sunnyslope and Baker Flats. The eastern edge of the Wenatchee National Forest dominates the western half of the map, characterized by the steep elevations of the Entiat Mountains and distinctive peaks such as Burch Mtn. Geologically notable features like Turtle Rock and Lincoln Rock punctuate the riverside, while a complex network of forest development roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 5212, winds through deep drainages like Spencer Canyon and Mills Canyon. This record illustrates the modern intersection of hydroelectric infrastructure and preserved mountain wilderness in central Washington.
