About this map

Silver Star Mtn and the surrounding high country of the Okanogan National Forest dominate this landscape within the North Cascades region. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations and deep drainages, where Early Winters Creek and Cedar Creek serve as primary watercourses. This 2023 survey illustrates the modern boundary of the Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness, preserving a network of high-altitude basins containing Varden Lake, Shelokum Lake, and the aptly named Mudhole Lake.

A system of primitive routes provides access to these peaks, including the Early Winters Trl and the Cedar Creek Trl. Notable landmarks like Snagtooth Ridge, Delancy Ridge, and North Gardner Mtn provide a clear view of the complex topography that has historically shaped travel and recreation in this part of Washington. The map also captures several distinct forks of the waterway system, such as West Fork Cedar Creek and South Fork Cedar Creek, which converge in the steep valleys below Vositiki Ridge.
