About this map

Snowking Mtn and Razorback Mtn define the high-altitude landscape of this Skagit County terrain, situated within the Glacier Peak Wilderness and Mount Baker National Forest. This high-country region is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and alpine water bodies, including the prominent Upper Granite Lake and the connected waters of Upper Jordan Lake and Lower Jordan Lake. Drainage patterns are dictated by numerous creeks such as Jordan Creek, Illabot Creek, and Found Creek, which carve through the steep elevations.

The map details several established access points for backcountry navigation, including the Slide Lake Trl, Bear Lake Trl, and Jordan Lake Trl. These routes provide the primary means of traversing the territory near Illabot Lake and reaching remote basins like those containing Enjar Lake and Neori Lake. The preservation of the Illabot Wild and Scenic River corridor is also noted, highlighting the significance of this watershed in the northern Cascades.
