2017 Map of Stampede Pass

About this map

Stampede Pass serves as a critical corridor through the Cascades, where modern forest management and historical rail infrastructure converge. This 2017 survey details the mountain crossing between the Wenatchee National Forest and Snoqualmie National Forest, featuring the significant Stampede Tunnel and the Lake Keechelus Snowshed Tunnel along the western edge of Keechelus Lake. The map captures the industrial and recreational utility of the land, tracing the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds near the high points of Keechelus Ridge and Amabilis Mtn. The landscape is dotted with small named nodes such as Whittier, Martin, and Stampede, which follow the primary rail and water routes. The headwaters of the Yakima River flow south from the lake, while an intricate network of National Forest Development Roads provides access to remote water bodies like Swamp Lake, Baker Lake, and Lizard Lake.
