1926 Map of Steamboat Mtn

About this map

The Gifford Pinchot National Forest dominates this mid-1920s survey, documenting a landscape of high alpine glaciers and early forest management. Mount Adams anchors the eastern edge, with the Adams Glacier, White Salmon Glacier, and Pinnacle Glacier flowing from its slopes into the headwaters of the Lewis River and White Salmon River. Settlement is limited to isolated outposts like Guler in the south and the Tower Rock Ranger Sta near the Cispus River, reflecting the region's focus on timber and mining during this era. Trace the path of the Cascade Crest Trail as it winds past the Williams Mine and various mountain camps like Midway Camp and Squaw Camp. The map's detailed recording of numerous small lakes, such as Steamboat Lake and Placid Lake, provides a clear view of the wilderness before later recreational development.
