About this map

Gifford Pinchot National Forest encompasses the high-elevation terrain of Skamania County shown here, a landscape defined by volcanic geology and alpine waters. The map reveals the recovery of the area surrounding Spirit Lake, where topography like Windy Ridge and Independence Pass offer vantage points over the complex hydrology of the Green River and Clearwater Creek watersheds.

Numerous small lakes are scattered across the peaks, including Grizzly Lake, Ghost Lake, and Saint Charles Lake, which sit below prominent landmarks such as Goat Mtn and Bismark Mtn. The detailed network of Forest Service roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 99 and Nat For Dev Rd 26, provides a clear view of the modern access routes through this historically significant area, marking the location of specific points of interest like Harmony Falls and Bear Meadow.
