About this map

Steamboat Mountain dominates this landscape, its prominence preserved within the Steamboat Mountain Research Natural Area. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the upper reaches of the Lewis River and the White Salmon River, which carve through high-elevation meadows and hills. Significant open spaces such as Mulligan Meadow, Grand Meadows, and Dry Meadows interrupt the forest, providing clear landmarks for navigation through the mountainous terrain.

Industrial and recreational history intersect at sites like Williams Mine and the Steamboat Lake Campground. The presence of Island Shelter and Twin Falls Campground indicates a landscape heavily utilized for forest management and backcountry access. Dozens of creeks, such as Polson Creek and North Fork Pass Creek, feed into the larger river systems, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the southern Cascades.
