About this map

Glacier Peak Wilderness dominates this high-altitude landscape where the boundaries of Chelan and Snohomish counties meet along jagged ridgelines. The area is a critical junction for alpine travel, featuring the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds through Suiattle Pass and Cloudy Pass. The map documents a terrain defined by active glaciation, including the Lyman Glacier, Spider Glacier, and Company Glacier, which feed high-elevation water bodies like Lyman Lake.

Evidence of historical resource extraction is preserved through the Glacier Peak Mines located near Miners Ridge, and an additional Mine site near Cloudy Peak. Significant peaks such as Sitting Bull Mountain, Fortress Mountain, and Chiwawa Mountain serve as anchors for the local topography. This 1999 revision by the Forest Service provides a precise record of the trail systems and drainage patterns of the South Fork Agnes Creek and Chiwawa River before the turn of the millennium.
