2017 Map of Steamboat Mountain

About this map

Steamboat Mountain rises as a central landmark in this 2017 survey of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Skamania County. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage systems, where the Lewis River and the White Salmon River are fed by numerous tributaries including N-Fork Swampy Cr, Pass Cr, and Boulder Cr. This modern topographic study reveals a high-elevation environment dominated by open clearings like Mulligan Meadow and Grand Meadows. For those tracing historical or recreational routes, the map clearly delineates the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds through the southern and eastern sectors, passing near Steamboat Lake. The network of Forest Service roads, such as Nat For Dev RD 90, underscores the area's continued use for forest management and back-country access.
