2017 Map of Sloan Peak

About this map

Mount Baker National Forest anchors this high-elevation landscape, where the N Fork Sauk River and its numerous tributaries have carved deep drainages through the Cascade Range. The terrain is dominated by prominent summits including Sloan Peak, Bedal Peak, and Ira Spring Mtn, reflecting the geological character of Snohomish County. The map reveals a high-altitude network of alpine lakes such as Goat Lake, Cadet Lake, and Sunup Lake, many of which feed into steep creeks like Elliott Cr and Sloan Cr. The primary corridor of human access is defined by Nat For Dev Rd 49, which follows the river valley. This 2017 survey provides a precise look at the hydrology and topographical naming of the area, from the narrow Penders Canyon to the notable North Fork Falls, documenting the land before any subsequent shifts in forest management or natural alteration.
