About this map

Okanogan National Forest provides the setting for this high-altitude landscape, where the Chewuch River snakes along the western edge of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes rising toward South Twentymile Peak and the namesake Spur Peak in the east. Numerous small drainages, such as the curiously named No July Creek and Honeymoon Creek, carve deep into the slopes, illustrating the complex hydrology of this drainage basin.

A network of named watercourses including Twentymile Creek and the North Fork Boulder Creek converge in this territory, which remained largely primitive at the time of this 1991 provisional edition. This specific survey preserves the naming conventions of the mid-twentieth century, recording the placement of landmarks like Snake Creek and Timber Creek before modern environmental shifts or management changes altered the local nomenclature.
