1966 Map of Snowking Mtn.

About this map

Snowking Mountain dominates this high-elevation landscape in the North Cascades, where the Glacier Peak Wilderness meets the Mt Baker National Forest. The geography is defined by a dense network of subalpine basins and glacial lakes, including the Granite Lakes group—Lake No. 1, Lake No. 2, and the upper and lower basins—along with the clustered Found Lakes. These water bodies feed numerous drainage systems such as Illabot Creek, Otter Creek, and Jordan Creek. The 1960s terrain data shows the stark transition from peak to valley, reaching from the southern slopes of Razorback Mountain down toward Illabot Lake. This map captures the wilderness character of Skagit County before modern recreational trails were fully formalized, documenting the names of smaller features like Enjar Lake, Skaro Lake, and Whale Lake.
