1987 Map of The Rockies

About this map

The Rockies provides the namesake high point for this interior mountain region of Washington in the late 1980s. This survey area is defined by the headwaters of several significant drainage systems, including the Deschutes River and Little Nisqually River to the north, and the Tilton River flowing across the southern sections. The landscape is heavily characteristic of industrial forestry management within the Snoqualmie National Forest and Gifford Pinchot National Forest, marked by numerous Borrow Pit and Quarry sites used for maintenance of the extensive timber road network. Small alpine water bodies like Goose Lake and Duck Lake sit among high peaks such as Stahl Mountain and Ladd Mountain, while human access is indicated by isolated Gate markers and a network of 4WD tracks.
