1969 Map of Skagit Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Canada United States border forms the northern limit of this high-country survey, where the peaks of the North Cascades define a landscape shaped by remote watersheds and early wilderness management. Skagit Peak stands as a central high point, surrounded by deep drainages like Lightning Creek and Three Fools Creek. This area was documented just after the establishment of the Ross Lake National Recreation Area and the Pasayten Wilderness, marking a period when back-country infrastructure supported seasonal travel and forest oversight. Small outposts such as Nightmare Camp, Deer Lick Cabin, and Little Fish Shelter are plotted along the extensive Pack Trail network, providing rare evidence of human habitation in these steep valleys. To the east, the map traces the Whatcom Co Okanogan Co line through the high summits of Joker Mountain and Freezeout Mtn.
