2014 Map of Sun Mountain

About this map

Lake Chelan anchors the southwestern edge of this high-elevation terrain, where the Lucerne-Stehekin Ferry route provides a vital waterborne connection through the wilderness. The landscape is a complex of significant peaks and ridgelines, including Reynolds Peak, Splawn Mtn, and the prominent War Creek Ridge. This area serves as a critical boundary zone between the Okanogan National Forest and the Wenatchee National Forest, with the county line between Chelan and Okanogan following the high divides. Backcountry travelers rely on strategic crossings like War Creek Pass and Purple Pass to navigate between deep drainages such as Fourmile Cr and Flick Cr. The presence of the Flick Creek Campground near Hunts Bluff highlights the recreational value of the shoreline in this protected mountain corridor.
