About this map

The Middle Fork Teanaway River and its numerous tributaries, including Malcolm Creek and Way Creek, dominate this part of Kittitas County. In the early 21st century, this landscape was defined by its high-elevation landmarks and recreational sites, such as the Teanaway Butte Lookout situated atop Teanaway Butte. The convergence of the West, Middle, and North forks of the Teanaway River in the southern portion of the map highlights a critical watershed junction.

Several seasonal and organizational camps are scattered throughout the river valleys, including Lilahee Camp, Bible Rock Childrens Camp, and Casland. Movement through this mountainous area is facilitated by a network of forest roads like the Teanaway Road Middle Frk and Wagon Wheel Rd. The presence of Liars Prairie and Carlson Canyon points to a topography that transitions from river bottomlands to the steep slopes of Malcolm Mountain and Yellow Hill.
