About this map

Tieton River carves through this mountain landscape at the turn of the 21st century, serving as the central artery for a series of recreational sites including Hause Creek Campground, River Bend Campground, and Wild Rose Campground. The area is a complex of managed lands, where the Tieton Basin meets the Mt Baker Snoqualmie National Forest. Notable landmarks such as the distinctive Kloochman Rock and the high peaks of Goose Egg Mountain frame the valley.

Administrative and emergency infrastructure is clearly marked, including the Tieton Work Center and the Tieton Emergency Airstrip, indicating the region's importance for forest management and fire response. Water resources are abundant, with small alpine bodies like Bear Lake and Lynne Lake tucked into the ridges, while the Oak Creek State Wildlife Area occupies the northeastern corner of the quadrangle. The presence of numerous 4WD tracks and trails suggests a landscape heavily used for both conservation and rugged outdoor access.
