About this map

Snider Peak and the high ridges of Clallam County define this landscape of the Olympic Peninsula as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map highlights a network of forest roads and lookouts, such as North Point Lookout and Kloshe Nanitch Lookout, which oversee a complex system of drainage basins. These watersheds include the South Fork Pysht River flowing north, and the Sol Duc River and North Fork Calawah River moving through the central and southern reaches.

Logistics for recreation and fire management are central to this area, evidenced by the Klahowya Campground and named forest routes like Nat For Dev Rd 3072 and FS RD 2918. The terrain is deeply carved by numerous creeks such as Kugel Creek, Camp Creek, and Bear Creek, illustrating the dense hydrological network of the Pacific Northwest. This survey provides a baseline for tracking the evolution of forest service infrastructure and topographic changes in the western Cascades.
