2014 Map of Sleeping Beauty

About this map

Sleeping Beauty stands as a prominent volcanic landmark within the high-elevation terrain of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in this 2014 survey. The landscape is defined by a dense network of Forest Development Roads and the prominent corridor of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, which traverses the western edge of the quadrangle near Tire Junction. Water features are abundant, ranging from the cascade at Langfield Falls to several subalpine basins containing Little Goose Lake, Lake Comcomly, and Lake Wapiki. This map illustrates the modern management of a recreational and timber wilderness, showing how various forest roads, such as Nat For Dev RD 88, provide access to the drainages of Trout Lake Cr and Little Goose Cr. The area around Deadhorse Meadow and Peterson Ridge highlights the complex topography of the southern Cascades during the early 21st century.
